MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Credential Access The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Requires an actor with Mattermost System Administrator privileges (PR:H) on an instance running an affected version (11.7.x <= 11.7.10) that uses OpenID Connect, since the admin must set the OpenID discovery endpoint URL; the flaw is that outbound internal-connection filtering is not applied to that discovery fetch, which is then triggered by an unauthenticated login request. The dominant limiting factor is the System Administrator prerequisite - an actor with that role already controls the server configuration - which sharply reduces real-world risk despite the network attack vector; impact is confined to inferring reachability of internal addresses/ports (C:L), with no integrity or availability effect. |
| Impact | This is a low-priority, high-CVSS-does-not-apply case - the assigned CVSS 3.1 base score is only 2.7 (LOW), consistent with the limited impact. The vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N shows the critical gating factor: PR:H means the actor must already hold System Administrator privileges, which the description confirms ('allows a System Administrator to determine...'). The only impact is C:L (I:N/A:N): the attacker learns whether internal addresses and ports are reachable from the server - a blind SSRF / internal reachability probe (CWE-918), not data theft or code execution. No EPSS score was provided, there is no CISA KEV listing, and no PoC or exploit reference is present in the input, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The vuln.today decision label is 'monitor', aligning with all signals pointing to low urgency. The key tension worth stating: because exploitation requires an existing System Administrator - an actor who can already reconfigure the server, read secrets, and pivot by design - the marginal value of this SSRF to a real attacker is small, which is why both the CVSS score and the decision label are low. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A user who already holds Mattermost System Administrator rights configures the OpenID Connect integration with a discovery endpoint URL pointing at an internal host and port, then issues an unauthenticated login request that triggers the server-side discovery fetch. By observing the server's response or timing, they infer whether that internal address and port are reachable from the Mattermost host, effectively using the server as an internal port/reachability scanner. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 26, 2026
Internal-connection filtering is not applied to the OpenID Connect discovery fetch in Mattermost 11.7.x through 11.7.10, so a System Administrator who controls the configured discovery endpoint URL can learn whether internal addresses and ports are reachable from the server, with the fetch itself triggered by an unauthenticated login request. The assigned CVSS 3.1 score is 2.7 (LOW) with PR:H, reflecting that the actor must already hold System Administrator privileges and that impact is limited to low-confidentiality reachability inference with no integrity or availability effect. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and the reported decision signal is to monitor; the primary remediation is the Mattermost release addressing advisory MMSA-2026-00774.
RemediationAI
Apply the Mattermost release that resolves MMSA-2026-00774 as documented on the vendor security updates page (https://mattermost.com/security-updates); the available data does not list an exact fixed version number, so confirm the target build against that advisory before upgrading. Because the flaw requires the actor to hold System Administrator privileges and to control the OpenID Connect discovery endpoint URL, reducing exposure means restricting System Administrator assignments to trusted operators and reviewing configured OpenID discovery endpoints on affected 11.7.x instances, noting that neither measure removes the underlying missing outbound filtering and both trade off administrative flexibility. Upgrading remains the complete fix once the patched build is identified from the vendor advisory.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Mattermost supports OpenID Connect for single sign-on, and its configuration allows a System Administrator to supply a discovery endpoint URL that the server then fetches to obtain provider metadata. Mattermost normally applies outbound internal-connection filtering to server-side requests, but per the advisory that filtering is not applied to this particular discovery request, which maps to CWE-918 (Server-Side Request Forgery). Because the request is issued on login, an unauthenticated party can trigger the fetch, but the security-relevant capability - selecting the target URL - belongs to the System Administrator, which is why the vector scores PR:H. The disclosed impact is confined to determining whether internal addresses and ports are reachable from the server (C:L), with no integrity or availability impact; the trigger mechanics beyond the discovery-fetch path are not further described in the available sources, and the CPE cpe:2.3:a:mattermost:mattermost confirms the affected platform is Mattermost server itself.
