Low · 3.1 CVE-2025-54499 EUVD-2025-34730GHSA-xr3w-rmvj-f6m7GO-2025-4036

Insecure string comparison enables timing attacks

Published Oct 16, 2025 · Updated Oct 16, 2025 · Assigned by Mattermost

Description

Mattermost versions 10.5.x <= 10.5.10, 10.11.x <= 10.11.2 fail to use constant-time comparison for sensitive string comparisons which allows attackers to exploit timing oracles to perform byte-by-byte brute force attacks via response time analysis on Cloud API keys and OAuth client secrets
