Publication date: 2026-02-13

Last updated on: 2026-02-18

Assigner: Mattermost, Inc.

Description
Mattermost versions 11.1.x <= 11.1.2, 10.11.x <= 10.11.9, 11.2.x <= 11.2.1 fail to validate user permissions when creating Jira issues from Mattermost posts, which allows an authenticated attacker with access to the Jira plugin to read post content and attachments from channels they do not have access to via the /create-issue API endpoint by providing the post ID of an inaccessible post..

Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects certain versions of Mattermost (11.1.x <= 11.1.2, 10.11.x <= 10.11.9, 11.2.x <= 11.2.1) where the system fails to properly validate user permissions when creating Jira issues from Mattermost posts.

An authenticated attacker who has access to the Jira plugin can exploit this flaw by using the /create-issue API endpoint with the post ID of a post they do not have permission to access.

This allows the attacker to read the content and attachments of posts from channels they are not authorized to view.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information because an attacker with Jira plugin access can read posts and attachments from restricted channels.

This could result in exposure of confidential or private data to unauthorized users.

The CVSS base score of 4.3 indicates a low to medium severity impact, specifically affecting confidentiality without impacting integrity or availability.
