Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.10, 10.11.x <= 10.11.2 fail to use constant-time comparison for sensitive string comparisons which allows attackers to exploit timing oracles to perform byte-by-byte brute force attacks via response time analysis on Cloud API keys and OAuth client secrets.
