Summary

CVE-2026-49378 is a medium-severity Missing Authorization (CWE-862) vulnerability in Jetbrains Teamcity. Its CVSS base score is 4.3 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Unsecured Credentials (T1552); ranked at the 12th 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

In JetBrains TeamCity before 2026.1 credentials parameters were exposed via parameter autocompletion

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1552 Unsecured Credentials Credential Access
Adversaries may search compromised systems to find and obtain insecurely stored credentials.
Why these techniques?

Missing authorization (CWE-862) directly exposes credential parameters via UI autocompletion, mapping to unsecured credentials discovery.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly enforces authorization decisions so that credential-type parameters are never returned to users lacking the required privileges, blocking the autocomplete exposure.

prevent

Requires that only the minimum set of users and roles can view or reference credential parameters, eliminating the unnecessary visibility that enabled the autocomplete leak.

prevent

Enforces information-flow rules that can be configured to prohibit credential values from flowing into any autocomplete or suggestion channel regardless of user session.

PR.AA-05 full match
prevents

Explicitly requires defining, enforcing, and reviewing authorizations and least privilege, directly preventing missing authorization checks.

Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

prevents

Requiring authentication and credentials before any access occurs eliminates the absence of authorization checks that would otherwise allow an unauthenticated actor to reach protected resources.

prevents

Requiring formal authorization of every access request before rights are granted ensures that checks for required permissions are performed, preventing missing authorization checks from being introduced.

prevents

Mandatory authorization checks and central records of granted rights ensure that every access attempt is preceded by an explicit decision rather than relying on missing checks.

mitigates

Segregating the approval of access rights from their implementation provides an independent check that reduces the impact of missing authorization checks in the resulting system configuration.

detects

By requiring competent outsiders to verify that every function enforces the need-to-know principle, the control lowers the likelihood that missing authorization checks persist undetected.

prevents

Defining authorization responsibilities and reviewing risk-treatment progress throughout the project lifecycle catches missing authorization checks before the system is deployed.
