Mattermost: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2026-6346 is a high-severity exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor vulnerability in Mattermost, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.7 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with administrator privileges, without any action from a user. Affected Mattermost versions: 11.5.0 through 11.5.1; 10.11.0 through 10.11.13; 11.4.0 through 11.4.3. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.3% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Update Mattermost Server to 10.11.14 or 11.4.4 or 11.5.2, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
  2. Read the advisory on mattermost.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.

Official description

Mattermost versions 11.5.x <= 11.5.1, 10.11.x <= 10.11.13, 11.4.x <= 11.4.3 fail to sanitize sensitive configuration fields before including them in support packet generation, which allows a Mattermost System Admin or any party with access to a support packet to obtain sensitive credentials in plaintext via downloading a support packet from the System Console.. Mattermost Advisory ID: MMSA-2026-00607

The underlying weakness: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Compartmentalize the system to have safe areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area. Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
