How severe is CVE-2022-1332?

CVE-2022-1332 has a CVSS score of 4.3/10, rated MEDIUM. Review your exposure and patch according to your risk tolerance.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2022-1332?

CVE-2022-1332 affects the following packages: github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/v6 (Go), github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/v6 (Go), github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/v6 (Go), github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/v5 (Go). Ecosystems affected: Go.

How do I fix CVE-2022-1332?

Update github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/v6 to 6.4.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2022-1332 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2022-1332 in my Go dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/v6, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2022-1332 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Close the privilege gap rather than the entry point: audit which accounts, roles and service identities can reach the affected operation, drop the component to the least privilege it actually needs, and review file and directory permissions created by earlier installs — a default left in place is what makes this reachable.

Is CVE-2022-1332 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2022-1332 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2022-1332?

CVE-2022-1332 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.7%, placing it in the 51th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2022-1332?

CVE-2022-1332 is classified as Information Exposure (CWE-200), Improper Privilege Management (CWE-269). These weakness types describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.

When was CVE-2022-1332 published, and has it been updated?

CVE-2022-1332 was published on April 13, 2022 and was last updated on October 28, 2026. Advisory data evolves as severity scores, affected ranges, and exploit intelligence are revised — always check the latest version of the advisory before acting.
