Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-16047 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Mattermost Mattermost Server. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16047/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16047/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-16047","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-16047/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-16047","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7xj3-8pxr-p8pc","MINI-ch24-67jq-r659","MINI-m82w-5vw2-j756"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mattermost collaboration platform","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can discover private channel memberships by linking boards to arbitrary channels without proper read permission validation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Mattermost","cpe":[{"product":"mattermost_server","vendor":"mattermost"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Mattermost versions 11.7.x \u003c= 11.7.6, 10.11.x \u003c= 10.11.21, 11.8.x \u003c= 11.8.3 fail to validate that users have read access to a channel before linking a board to it, which allows an authenticated attacker to discover the membership of private channels on the same team via creating, patching, importing, or bulk-creating boards with an arbitrary channelId.
