Summary

Mattermost versions 11.9.x <= 11.9.0, 11.8.x <= 11.8.4, and 11.7.x <= 11.7.7 fail to enforce authorization boundaries on the access control policy update endpoint, allowing a channel or team administrator to detach a system-assigned ABAC parent policy via a crafted PUT /api/v4/access_control_policies request with an empty imports list.

Risk Assessment

Unauthorized administrators can alter access control policies, potentially leading to privilege escalation or security integrity compromise.

Recommendation

Update Mattermost to a version that includes the fix as per advisory MMSA-2026-00724.
