CVE-2025-4573 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2025-4573: Mattermost versions 10.7.x <= 10.7.1, 10.6.x <= 10.6.3, 10.5.x <= 10.5.4, 9.11.x <= 9.11.13 fail to properly validate LDAP group ID attributes, allowing an authenticated administrator with PermissionSysconsoleWriteUserManagementGroups permission to execute LDAP search filter injection via the PUT /api/v4/ldap/groups/{remote_id}/link API when objectGUID is configured as the Group ID Attribute.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2025-4573

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2025-4573 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2025-4573

The exploitability of CVE-2025-4573 is influenced by multiple factors. Security teams should analyze system configurations and apply appropriate countermeasures to mitigate threats.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2025-4573, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

CIA Impact Analysis

Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2025-4573, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.

  • Confidentiality: Low
    CVE-2025-4573 could lead to minor leaks of non-critical information without major privacy breaches.
  • Integrity: None
    CVE-2025-4573 poses no threat to data integrity.
  • Availability: None
    CVE-2025-4573 does not impact system availability.

CWE Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-90

CAPEC Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification

  • LDAP Injection CAPEC-136 An attacker manipulates or crafts an LDAP query for the purpose of undermining the security of the target. Some applications use user input to create LDAP queries that are processed by an LDAP server. For example, a user might provide their username during authentication and the username might be inserted in an LDAP query during the authentication process. An attacker could use this input to inject additional commands into an LDAP query that could disclose sensitive information. For example, entering a * in the aforementioned query might return information about all users on the system. This attack is very similar to an SQL injection attack in that it manipulates a query to gather additional information or coerce a particular return value.
