faking consent. An attacker could forge the FeatureAuthorization object that is used to verify consent to be featured in a Collection and thus make it appear as if an account is allowed to be in a Collection when it actually is not. While the FeatureAuthorization must reside on the same domain as the object it is for, a check is missing to make sure said object is actually the same as in the Collection item. This allows an attacker to forge the authorization. Mastodon servers are affected only if running the main branch or nightly builds who have opted into testing the experimental "Collections" feature by setting the environment variable EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES to a value including collections. This has been patched in version 4.6.0-beta.1.

Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Addresses incorrect authorization by requiring independent verification of results and an opportunity to contest before any adverse action is taken.
Periodic review and update of procedures reduces incorrect authorization implementations over time.
Supervision identifies cases where authorization logic incorrectly permits unauthorized actions.
Defining permitted attribute values and auditing modifications reduces the chance of incorrect authorization outcomes due to tampered or missing labels.
The authorization process and usage restrictions help prevent incorrect authorization for remote access types.
Establishing configuration and connection requirements helps ensure correct rather than incorrect authorization for wireless access.
Establishing connection authorization processes for mobile devices helps ensure authorization decisions are correctly implemented rather than incorrect.
Monitoring account use, notifying on changes, and reviewing accounts for compliance corrects incorrect authorization assignments.
