Medium 5.3
In plain English
A medium-severity improper access control in Rocket.Chat from Rocket.Chat. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 17% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The /api/v1/autotranslate.translateMessage endpoint in versions <8.5.0, <8.4.2, <8.3.4, <8.2.4, <8.1.5, <8.0.6, <7.13.8, and <7.10.12 allows any authenticated user to retrieve the full content of any message from any room (private groups, direct messages, channels) by simply providing the target message ID. The endpoint fetches the message via Messages.findOneById(messageId) with no room access check (canAccessRoomIdAsync is never called), returning the complete IMessage object including message text, sender info, room ID, timestamps, and markdown content.
