## Overview

Mattermost versions 11.7.x <= 11.7.0, 10.11.x <= 10.11.17 fail to enforce bot-specific permission checks on the user active status endpoint, which allows a User Manager with user management write access but no Integrations access to deactivate bot accounts via the PUT /api/v4/users/{id}/active API endpoint.. Mattermost Advisory ID: MMSA-2026-00667

## Affected packages

- `github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server >= 11.7.0, < 11.7.1`
- `github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server >= 10.11.0, < 10.11.18`

## Remediation

Upgrade to a patched release:

- `github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server 11.7.1`
- `github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server 10.11.18`
