The version of Mattermost Server running on the remote host is prior to 7.8.10, 8.0.x prior to 8.0.2, or 8.1.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  • Mattermost fails to properly check permissions when retrieving a post allowing for a System Role with the permission to manage channels to read the posts of a DM conversation. (CVE-2023-5193)

  • Mattermost fails to properly validate the permissions when soft deleting a team allowing a team member to soft delete other teams that they are not part of. (CVE-2023-5195)

  • Mattermost fails to enforce character limits in all possible notification props allowing an attacker to send a really long value for a notification_prop resulting in the server consuming an abnormal quantity of computing resources and possibly becoming temporarily unavailable for its users. (CVE-2023-5196)

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