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-2026-24458/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-24458/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-24458","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-24458/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-24458","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m5rv-56xx-hfc6","GO-2026-4731"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mattermost chat platform","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause server CPU and memory exhaustion by submitting login attempts with multi-megabyte passwords, requiring administrators to upgrade Mattermost.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Mattermost","cpe":[{"product":"mattermost_server","vendor":"mattermost"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"}],"description":"Mattermost versions 11.3.x \u003c= 11.3.0, 11.2.x \u003c= 11.2.2, 10.11.x \u003c= 10.11.10 fail to properly handle very long passwords, which allows an attacker to overload the server CPU and memory via executing login attempts with multi-megabyte passwords.
