Summary

Mattermost versions 11.9.0 through 11.9.1, 11.8.0 through 11.8.5, 11.7.0 through 11.7.10 and 11.10.0 through 11.10.1 do not invalidate the stored AD/LDAP bind password when other connection settings such as the server address are changed. A System Console administrator can use the Test Connection diagnostics feature to send the plaintext bind password to an attacker-controlled server, which is CWE-201 (insertion of sensitive information into sent data). Exploitation requires high privileges and no user interaction, and the CVSS score is 4.9 (medium).

Description from the CNA

Mattermost versions 11.9.x <= 11.9.1, 11.8.x <= 11.8.5, 11.7.x <= 11.7.10, 11.10.x <= 11.10.1 fail to invalidate the stored AD/LDAP bind password when other connection settings (such as the server address) are changed, which allows a System Console administrator to disclose the plaintext bind password to an attacker-controlled server via the Test Connection / diagnostics feature.
