Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
Rocket.Chat before 4.7.5 exposed more user information than intended through an authenticated REST endpoint. A normal logged-in user could obtain data about other users, excluding password hashes. This is mainly a confidentiality issue, not system takeover.
Executive priority
Prioritize remediation where Rocket.Chat contains employee, customer, or partner profile data. This is not rated critical, but insider or compromised-account exposure can create privacy and social-engineering risk.
Technical view
The users.list REST endpoint accepted a JSON query parameter and passed client-controlled input into Users.find(queryFromClientSide). CVSS 3.1 is 4.3: network reachable, low complexity, low privileges required, no user interaction, limited confidentiality impact.
Likely exposure
Organizations running Rocket.Chat versions earlier than 4.7.5 are potentially exposed, especially where many users or external collaborators have accounts.
Exploitation context
The provided sources do not show CISA KEV listing or active exploitation. Exploitation requires authenticated access to Rocket.Chat and network reachability to the affected REST endpoint.
Researcher notes
This is CWE-200 information disclosure. The source states password hashes were excluded, but does not enumerate every exposed field. Validate exposure against local schema, custom fields, integrations, and account population.
Mitigation direction
- Upgrade Rocket.Chat to version 4.7.5 or later.
- Check Rocket.Chat vendor guidance for supported backports or additional mitigations.
- Review and remove unnecessary Rocket.Chat user accounts.
- Limit Rocket.Chat exposure to trusted networks where operationally feasible.
Validation and detection
- Inventory Rocket.Chat instances and confirm their running versions.
- Identify any instance below Rocket.Chat 4.7.5 as affected.
- Review logs for unusual authenticated users.list activity.
- Assess what user profile data is sensitive in your deployment.

CWE-200: Information exposure and cloud metadata lookup
Information exposure and SSRF weaknesses can make discovery, cloud metadata, and credential material review relevant. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
Open ATT&CK lookupCredential and access behavior lookup
The CVE wording references authentication or credential exposure, so valid-account and credential-access review may help. This is a Glexia inferred lookup path, not an official MITRE, ATT&CK, or CVE Program mapping.

Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor
Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
