CVE-2025-55073: MS Teams plugin OAuth allows editing arbitrary posts

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)

  • 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: 0.19% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go) 10.11.4, 10.11.4+incompatible, 10.12.1; github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (Go) 8.0.0-20250929212932-a41db04d2746.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go) 10.11.4, 10.11.4+incompatible, 10.12.1; github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (Go) 8.0.0-20250929212932-a41db04d2746 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 10.11.x <= 10.11.3, 10.5.x <= 10.5.11, 10.12.x <= 10.12.0 fail to validate the relationship between the post being updated and the MSTeams plugin OAuth flow which allows an attacker to edit arbitrary posts via a crafted MSTeams plugin OAuth redirect URL.

Weakness class (CWE)

CWE-306 · Missing Authentication for Critical Function

Root cause

A function added for development or support ships to production without authentication. It often relies on the assumption that it is “only reachable from the internal network.”
