CVE-2026-44678 is a high-severity Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key (CWE-639) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 7.1 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 13th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-3 (Access Enforcement) and AC-6 (Least Privilege) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data
Tuist is a virtual platform team for Swift app devs. In 1.180.8 and earlier, the DELETE /api/projects/{account_handle}/{project_handle}/previews/{preview_id} endpoint loads the preview by its UUID without verifying that the preview belongs to the project resolved from the URL path. The route's…

project-level authorization plug (AuthorizationPlug, :preview) authorizes the caller against the project encoded in account_handle/project_handle — which the attacker controls — and then the action deletes whichever preview's UUID is supplied. The check therefore guards the wrong project.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Directly requires the system to enforce approved authorizations on objects so that a caller authorized only for one project cannot delete previews belonging to another.
Requires validation of supplied identifiers (preview_id) against the resource context (project_handle) before performing the delete operation.
Requires that every access decision apply the minimum set of privileges needed for the specific object, exposing the missing ownership check in the preview authorization path.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Enforcing authorization policy and least privilege directly blocks user-controlled key tampering that bypasses access checks.
Logical access controls prevent unauthorized data access that results from missing authorization checks on object references.

Security testing can detect missing authorization checks but does not prevent the weakness in production.
Information access restriction explicitly enforces that users may only retrieve data they are authorized to see, directly addressing user-controlled key bypass.
Access control policy directly requires enforcement of authorization rules that prevent unauthorized access via manipulated keys.
Managing access rights includes ensuring users can only access their own records and not bypass authorization by altering identifiers.
Privileged access rights control restricts what data each user may access, mitigating direct object reference attacks.
Secure development lifecycle includes authorization design but does not itself implement runtime access checks.
