Mattermost Server 9.10.x < 9.10.1 / 9.5.x < 9.5.8 (MMSA-2024-00352)

low Nessus Plugin ID 206304

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of Mattermost Server installed on the remote host is 9.5.x prior to 9.5.8 or 9.10.0 prior to 9.10.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the MMSA-2024-00352 advisory.

- Mattermost versions 9.5.x <= 9.5.7, 9.10.x <= 9.10.0 fail to properly enforce permissions which allows a team admin user without Add Team Members permission to disable the invite URL. (CVE-2024-40884)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Mattermost Server version 9.5.8 / 9.10.1 or later.
