Executive Summary

Mattermost versions between 11.9.0 and older, 11.8.4 and older, 11.7.7 and older, and 10.11.22 and older fail to enforce the board-creation permission. This allows an unauthorized authenticated user to create boards through specific endpoints like board duplicate, boards-and-blocks, and archive-import.

Impact Analysis

An unauthorized user could create boards in your Mattermost instance, potentially leading to unauthorized data organization, confusion, or misuse of collaborative spaces. This could disrupt workflows or expose sensitive information if boards contain restricted data.

Mitigation Strategies

Update Mattermost to a version that is not affected by this vulnerability. Specifically, upgrade to versions beyond 11.9.0, 11.8.4, 11.7.7, or 10.11.22 depending on your current installation.
