DescriptionMattermost versions 11.5.x <= 11.5.1, 10.11.x <= 10.11.13, 11.4.x <= 11.4.3 Fail to validate the response body of proxied images, which allows a remote attacker to enact client-side DoS via an SVG file served from an attacker-controlled origin under a non-SVG Content-Type header (e.g. image/png) embedded in an og:image meta tag or Markdown image link..
