CVE-2026-4265

MediumCVSS 4.3
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Mattermost versions 11.3.x <= 11.3.0, 11.2.x <= 11.2.2, 10.11.x <= 10.11.10 fail to validate team-specific upload_file permissions, allowing a guest user to post files in channels where they lack upload_file permission by uploading files in a team where they have permission and reusing the file metadata in a POST request to a different team.

Risk Assessment

A guest user can bypass permission restrictions and post files in channels they should not have access to, potentially leading to unauthorized content sharing. This may violate security and access control policies within the organization.

Recommendation

Update Mattermost to a version later than those listed (e.g., 11.3.1, 11.2.3, 10.11.11 or later). Review guest permissions and monitor for unusual file upload activity.
