Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

An attacker who can post to a channel can send a crafted post with attachment fields that cannot be converted to a string, crashing the webapp. Upgrade to 8.0.0-20241127161322-25ff7a3779a5, 9.11.6, 10.0.4, 10.1.4, or 10.2.1 or later.
