CVE intelligence and bounded remediation
CVE-2025-71388 — stoatchat (delta/Revolt) security vulnerability
stoatchat (delta/Revolt) versions from 20241213-1 before 20250210-1 allow users with only ViewChannel (read) permission on a channel to fetch that channel's webhooks, including their tokens, because the webhook fetch endpoint checked for ViewChannel instead of ManageWebhooks. Using a retrieved token, an attacker can send arbitrary messages to the channel, bypassing channel permissions and impersonating a bot or webhook. Fixed in 20250210-1 (0.8.2).

Matched remediation archetype
Authorization bypass, IDOR, and cross-tenant access
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Map object and action authorization checks across API, UI, batch, import/export, and background-job paths.
- Identify tenant, ownership, role, and policy boundaries for affected resources and administrative operations.
- Use synthetic fixtures to compare intended access matrices without accessing another user's real data.
Remediate safely
- Enforce server-side authorization at each resource access and state transition using the authenticated principal and trusted tenant context.
- Scope data queries by tenant and ownership; treat client-supplied identifiers, roles, and policy claims as untrusted.
- Add deny-by-default policy tests for horizontal and vertical access across every affected transport.
