Mattermost has an Incorrect Authorization issue
Mattermost versions 11.7.x <= 11.7.0, 10.11.x <= 10.11.17 fail to validate bot targets when demoting users to guests which allows a lower-privileged administrator to degrade arbitrary bot accounts via the standard demote-user API.. Mattermost Advisory ID: MMSA-2026-00669
