medium Nessus Plugin ID 209300

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of Mattermost Server installed on the remote host is prior to 9.5.8 or 9.10.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the MMSA-2024-00364 advisory.

 - Mattermost versions 9.5.x <= 9.5.7, 9.10.x <= 9.10.0 fail to enforce proper access controls which allows any authenticated user, including guests, to mark any channel inside any team as read for any user.
 (CVE-2024-43813)

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.
