CVE-2025-71388
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).
No public exploitation has been reported so far. No distribution fix is listed yet; apply vendor mitigations and monitor.
Recommended action: Track your distribution's security tracker and apply the fix as soon as it ships.

Affected & fixed versions by distribution
Versions are the native distribution strings (backport-aware): RHEL/Debian/SUSE backport fixes, so compare with the distro version comparator (dpkg / rpm / vercmp), not the upstream version.
No affected package in the tracked watchlist yet (Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, SUSE, Red Hat...). Triage may still be pending.
