CVE-2025-27936: Webhook Secret Exposure via Timing attack in MSteams plugin
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 23/100)
- 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: 0.34% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-msteams (Go) 2.1.0; github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go) 10.5.2+incompatible; github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (Go) 10.5.2, 8.0.0-20250314142426-c049748b8863, 8.0.0-20250218121836-2b5275d87136.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to github.com/mattermost/mattermost-plugin-msteams (Go) 2.1.0; github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server (Go) 10.5.2+incompatible; github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (Go) 10.5.2, 8.0.0-20250314142426-c049748b8863, 8.0.0-20250218121836-2b5275d87136 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 Plugin MSTeams versions <2.1.0 and Mattermost Server versions 10.5.x <=10.5.1 with the MS Teams plugin enabled fail to perform constant time comparison on a MSTeams plugin webhook secret which allows an attacker to retrieve the webhook secret of the MSTeams plugin via a timing attack during webhook secret comparison.
