Mattermost · Mattermost · CVE-2025-2570
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Mattermost versions 10.5.x through 10.5.3
Mattermost versions 9.11.x through 9.11.11
Description:
The issue arises when a user lacks access to `ExperimentalSettings`, causing the system to fail in checking the `RestrictSystemAdmin` setting. This allows a System Manager to access `ExperimentSettings` even when `RestrictSystemAdmin` is set to true, which can be done via the System Console.
Recommendations:
For Mattermost versions 10.5.x through 10.5.3, update to a version later than 10.5.3 to resolve the issue.
For Mattermost versions 9.11.x through 9.11.11, update to a version later than 9.11.11 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to `ExperimentSettings` for System Managers until a patch is available.
