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
AnalysisAI
Incorrect authorization in Mattermost's ABAC policy unassign API endpoint allows an authenticated team administrator to remove attribute-based access control policy assignments from channels that no longer belong to their team. Affected releases are Mattermost 11.7.0 through 11.7.6 and 11.8.0 through 11.8.3, tracked as MMSA-2026-00718 (ENISA EUVD-2026-60212). …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to hold an authenticated team administrator account within Mattermost (PR:H per CVSS vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 4.2 (Medium) accurately reflects the constrained exploitation profile: Attack Complexity is High (AC:H) because successful abuse requires a channel to have already been moved to a different team, creating a narrow and often transient window; Privileges Required is High (PR:H) because the attacker must hold team administrator credentials; and User Interaction is Required (UI:R), adding a further dependency on organizational workflow events. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade Mattermost server to a release that addresses MMSA-2026-00718; consult the vendor security updates page at https://mattermost.com/security-updates for the specific patched version, as an exact fix version number was not independently confirmed in the available intelligence (patch available per vendor advisory). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
