Summary

Mattermost versions 11.5.x <= 11.5.1, 10.11.x <= 10.11.13, 11.4.x <= 11.4.3 fail to check the create_post channel permission during post edit operations. An authenticated attacker with revoked posting privileges can modify their existing posts via direct API requests to the post update and patch endpoints.
