Mattermost Fails to Check User Access to ExperimentalSettings

CVE-2025-2570GHSA-fpff-wj6m-grvr

What to do

Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 10.5.3, 9.11.12, 8.0.0-20250411064244-844447fbd57c), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.

This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.2, 9.11.x <= 9.11.11 fail to check RestrictSystemAdmin setting if user doesn't have access to ExperimentalSettings which allows a System Manager to access ExperimentSettings when RestrictSystemAdmin is true via System Console.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2025-2570

Advisory: Mattermost Fails to Check User Access to `ExperimentalSettings`
IDs: CVE-2025-2570, GHSA-fpff-wj6m-grvr
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2025-2570 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 15:09 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Low (CVSS 2.7)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 10.5.3, 9.11.12, 8.0.0-20250411064244-844447fbd57c. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Go github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8: affected >= 10.5.0, <= 10.5.2; >= 9.11.0, <= 9.11.11; < 8.0.0-20250411064244-844447fbd57c; fixed in 9.11.12, 8.0.0-20250411064244-844447fbd57c, 10.5.3

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Go github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
