Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of Mattermost Server installed on the remote host is prior to 9.5.13, 9.11.5, 10.0.3, 10.1.3 or 10.2.0. It is, therefore, affected by the vulnerabilities as referenced in the MMSA-2024-00388 and MMSA-2024-00392 advisories:

- Mattermost fails to prevent concurrently checking and updating the failed login attempts. which allows an attacker to bypass of 'Max failed attempts' restriction and send a big number of login attempts before being blocked via simultaneously sending multiple login requests (CVE-2024-48872)

- Mattermost fails to properly validate the type of callProps which allows a user to cause a client side (webapp and mobile) DoS to users of particular channels, by sending a specially crafted post. (CVE-2024-54083)

- Mattermost fails fails to limit the file size for slack import file uploads which allows a user to cause a DoS via zip bomb by importing data in a team they are a team admin.
(CVE-2024-54682)

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 9.5.13 / 9.11.5 / 10.0.3 / 10.1.3, 10.2.0 or later.
