Mattermost Server 9.5.x < 9.5.9 / 9.10.x < 9.10.2 / 9.11.x < 9.11.1 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 210010

Synopsis

The remote host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Mattermost Server installed on the remote host is prior to 9.5.9, 9.10.2, or 9.11.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

- Mattermost versions 9.10.x <= 9.10.2, 9.11.x <= 9.11.1, 9.5.x <= 9.5.9 fail to sanitize user inputs in the frontend that are used for redirection which allows for a one-click client-side path traversal that is leading to CSRF in Playbooks (CVE-2024-46872)

- Mattermost versions 9.10.x <= 9.10.2, 9.11.x <= 9.11.1 and 9.5.x <= 9.5.9 fail to prevent detailed error messages from being displayed in Playbooks which allows an attacker to generate a large response and cause an amplified GraphQL response which in turn could cause the application to crash by sending a specially crafted request to Playbooks. (CVE-2024-47401)

- Mattermost versions 9.10.x <= 9.10.2, 9.11.x <= 9.11.1, 9.5.x <= 9.5.9 fail to check that the origin of the message in an integration action matches with the original post metadata which allows an authenticated user to delete an arbitrary post. (CVE-2024-50052)

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

Solution

Upgrade to Mattermost Server version 9.5.9 / 9.10.2 / 9.11.1 or later.
