CVE-2026-3115

CVE-2026-3115 is a medium-severity incorrect authorization vulnerability in github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (go), affecting versions = 11.4.0. It is fixed in 11.4.1, 11.3.2, 11.2.3, 10.11.11, 8.0.0-20260217110922-b7d4a1f1f59b.

Summary

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 apply view restrictions when retrieving group member IDs, which allows authenticated guest users to enumerate user IDs outside their allowed visibility scope via the group retrieval endpoint. Mattermost Advisory ID: MMSA-2026-00594.

Impact

The application does not correctly enforce access controls, allowing a principal to access resources or operations beyond their granted permissions. Typical impact: unauthorized data access or execution of privileged operations.

CVE-2026-3115 has a CVSS score of 4.3 (Medium). The vector is network-reachable, low privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (11.4.1, 11.3.2, 11.2.3, 10.11.11, 8.0.0-20260217110922-b7d4a1f1f59b); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

Kodem intelligence

Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.

Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is CVE-2026-3115? CVE-2026-3115 is a medium-severity incorrect authorization vulnerability in github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (go), affecting versions = 11.4.0. It is fixed in 11.4.1, 11.3.2, 11.2.3, 10.11.11, 8.0.0-20260217110922-b7d4a1f1f59b. The application does not correctly enforce access controls, allowing a principal to access resources or operations beyond their granted permissions.
  2. How severe is CVE-2026-3115? CVE-2026-3115 has a CVSS score of 4.3 (Medium). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.
  3. Which versions of github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 are affected by CVE-2026-3115? github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8 (go) versions = 11.4.0 is affected.
  4. Is there a fix for CVE-2026-3115? Yes. CVE-2026-3115 is fixed in 11.4.1, 11.3.2, 11.2.3, 10.11.11, 8.0.0-20260217110922-b7d4a1f1f59b. Upgrade to this version or later.
  5. Is CVE-2026-3115 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2026-3115 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

  6. What actually determines whether CVE-2026-3115 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
