CVE-2024-1888

MediumCVSS 4.3
Published: Updated: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Mattermost fails to check the 'invite_guest' permission when inviting guests of other teams to a team, allowing a member with permissions to add other members but not to add guests to add a guest to a team as long as the guest was already a guest in another team of the server.

Risk Assessment

An access control violation may allow unauthorized users to extend guest access to additional teams, potentially leading to unauthorized access to information or resources. This may violate the organization's team isolation policy.

Recommendation

Update Mattermost to a version containing the fix for this issue. Additionally, review team member permissions and verify which guests have access to which teams.
