Arbitrary post edits via unbound OAuth redirect
Published Nov 14, 2025 · Updated Nov 14, 2025
Authorization bypass in Mattermost 10.5.0 through 10.5.11, 10.11.0 through 10.11.3, and 10.12.0 allows remote authenticated users to edit posts. The MS Teams plugin OAuth redirect handler accepts a crafted post identifier without confirming that the target post belongs to the OAuth flow being completed. A low-privileged account and a reachable, enabled MS Teams plugin OAuth flow are required; successful exploitation changes arbitrary post content and can impair its availability.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=10.11.0 <=10.11.3
- Affected versionversion=10.12.0 <=10.12.0
- Affected versionversion=10.5.0 <=10.5.11
