2024.2.148429 authentication bypass via direct database access leading to administrative access was possible
Risk Analysis
This critical authentication bypass vulnerability in JetBrains YouTrack allows direct database access, leading to administrative privileges. With a perfect CVSS score of 10.0, this flaw poses an extremely high risk, but there is no information on exploitation likelihood (EPSS) or confirmed exploitation (KEV).
No public exploit is known for this vulnerability, and it has not been confirmed as exploited by CISA. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network with low attack complexity and requires no privileges or user interaction.
Upgrade JetBrains YouTrack to a version later than 2026.1.13757, 2025.3.148033, 2025.2.148048, 2025.1.148120, 2024.3.148430, or 2024.2.148429. Ensure that direct database access is properly secured and restricted.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-62422 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 10.0.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
