CVE-2026-32994: Access Control Flaw (CVSS 5.3)

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.
