CVE-2024-54682: Zipbomb DoS via Missing Slack Import Validation
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 19/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.44% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. Administrator privileges are required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go) 10.0.3+incompatible, 10.1.3+incompatible, 9.11.5+incompatible; github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (Go) 10.0.3, 10.1.3, 9.11.5; govulncheck-vulndb (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 0.0.20241218T202206-1.1.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go) 10.0.3+incompatible, 10.1.3+incompatible, 9.11.5+incompatible; github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (Go) 10.0.3, 10.1.3, 9.11.5; govulncheck-vulndb (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 0.0.20241218T202206-1.1 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Mattermost versions 10.1.x <= 10.1.2, 10.0.x <= 10.0.2, 9.11.x <= 9.11.4, 9.5.x <= 9.5.12 fail to limit the file size for slack import file uploads which allows a user to cause a DoS via zip bomb by importing data in a team they are a team admin.
