Upgrade Red-DiscordBot to version 3.5.10 or higher.
Overview
Red-DiscordBot is an A highly customisable Discord bot
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization through the commands API. An attacker can bypass authorization checks by exploiting the lack of additional permission controls in third-party cogs that use the @commands.can_manage_channel() permission check.
Note
The following command permission checks are unaffected:
@commands.mod_or_can_manage_channel()
@commands.admin_or_can_manage_channel()
@commands.guildowner_or_can_manage_channel()
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by unloading any cog using the @commands.can_manage_channel() command permission check until an upgrade to a patched version can be performed.
