Summary

Mattermost versions 11.9.x <= 11.9.0, 11.8.x <= 11.8.4, 11.7.x <= 11.7.7, 10.11.x <= 10.11.22 fail to limit the amount of memory allocated when decoding uploaded image files. An authenticated user can cause excessive server memory consumption and potential denial of service by uploading a specially crafted image as a profile picture, channel file attachment, team icon, or custom brand image.

Risk Assessment

An authenticated user can cause denial of service (DoS) through excessive server memory consumption, affecting Mattermost availability for all users. The risk is medium to high as it requires authentication.

Recommendation

Update Mattermost to a version containing the fix (newer than the listed versions). Until then, consider restricting image upload capabilities or monitoring server memory usage.
