CVE-2026-4054: SVG content served through Mattermost image proxy despite Content-Type restrictions causes client-side denial of service
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)
- 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: 0.24% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go) 0.0.0-20260414103857-b21ef302025e, 11.4.4, 11.4.4+incompatible.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 4.3, NVD 6.5.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go) 0.0.0-20260414103857-b21ef302025e, 11.4.4, 11.4.4+incompatible or later.

Mattermost versions 11.5.x <= 11.5.1, 10.11.x <= 10.11.13, 11.4.x <= 11.4.3 Fail to validate the response body of proxied images, which allows a remote attacker to enact client-side DoS via an SVG file served from an attacker-controlled origin under a non-SVG Content-Type header (e.g. image/png) embedded in an og:image meta tag or Markdown image link..
