CVE-2026-4273 is a low-severity flaw (CVSS 3.7) affecting mattermost server. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

Mattermost versions 11.5.x <= 11.5.1, 10.11.x <= 10.11.13 fail to validate that the RefreshedToken differs from the original invite token during remote cluster invite confirmation which allows an authenticated attacker to bypass token rotation and reuse the original invite token via sending a crafted invite confirmation with a RefreshedToken matching the original token. Mattermost Advisory ID: MMSA-2026-00575

Why this priority

Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action

A fixed release or distro patch exists.

mattermost mattermost server UPGRADE

Affected: >= 10.11.0 and < 10.11.14 · >= 11.5.0 and < 11.5.2

Fixed in: 10.11.14, 11.5.2

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 10.11.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy mattermost-server || rpm -q mattermost-server || mattermost-server --version

2. UPGRADE to 10.11.14 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade mattermost-server

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade mattermost-server

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 10.11.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison mattermost-server sudo apt install mattermost-server=<VERSION_BEFORE_10.11.0> sudo apt-mark hold mattermost-server

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list mattermost-server sudo dnf downgrade mattermost-server-<VERSION_BEFORE_10.11.0> sudo dnf versionlock add mattermost-server

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
