Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of Mattermost Server installed on the remote host is prior to 9.11.9, 10.3.4, or 10.4.3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the MMSA-2025-00422 advisory.

 - Mattermost versions 10.4.x <= 10.4.2, 10.3.x <= 10.3.3, 9.11.x <= 9.11.8 fail to enforce MFA on certain search APIs, which allows authenticated attackers to bypass MFA protections via user search, channel search, or team search queries. (CVE-2025-30179)

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 9.11.9 / 10.3.4 / 10.4.3 / 10.5.0 or later.
