Description
Mattermost versions 10.11.x <= 10.11.3, 10.5.x <= 10.5.11, 10.12.x <= 10.12.0 fail to validate the relationship between the post being updated and the MSTeams plugin OAuth flow which allows an attacker to edit arbitrary posts via a crafted MSTeams plugin OAuth redirect URL.

Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server to 10.11.4 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-55073 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.
