CVE-2026-16047 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.3/10 on the CVSS scale. Mattermost versions 11.7.x <= 11.7.6, 10.11.x <= 10.11.21, 11.8.x <= 11.8.3 fail to validate that users have read access to a channel before linking a board to it, which allows an authenticated attacker to discover the membership of private channels on the same team via creating, patching, importing, or bulk-creating boards with an arbitrary channelId. Mattermost Advisory ID: MMSA-2026-00674. EPSS estimates a 0.16% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
