CVE-2026-4274 PUBLISHED

Insufficient authorization in shared channel membership sync grants team-level access instead of channel-level access

Assigner: Mattermost
Reserved: 16.03.2026 Published: 26.03.2026 Updated: 26.03.2026

Mattermost versions 11.2.x <= 11.2.2, 10.11.x <= 10.11.10, 11.4.x <= 11.4.0, 11.3.x <= 11.3.1 fail to restrict team-level access when processing membership sync from a remote cluster, which allows a malicious remote cluster to grant a user access to an entire private team instead of only the shared channel via sending crafted membership sync messages that trigger team membership assignment. Mattermost Advisory ID: MMSA-2026-00574
