MMSA-2026-00718 advisory.
- Mattermost versions 11.7.x <= 11.7.6, 11.8.x <= 11.8.3 The access control policy unassign endpoint
fails to re-validate that each target channel still belongs to the requesting admin's team, which
allows an authenticated team administrator to remove ABAC (attribute-based access control) policy
assignments from channels outside their team via the policy unassign API after a channel has been
moved to another team. Mattermost Advisory ID: MMSA-2026-00718. (CVE-2026-15754)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
