Private-channel disclosure via missing membership check
Published Jun 25, 2026 · Updated Jun 25, 2026
Missing authorization in the Mattermost Google Drive Plugin before 1.1.0 allows remote authenticated users to post files to private channels. The handleFileCreation endpoint trusted a submitted channel ID and created or shared a file without calling GetChannelMember for the requester. A connected Google account and valid Mattermost session are required; exploitation reveals that a private channel exists and inserts a file post there.
