Impact

JetBrains YouTrack versions before 2025.3.156085, 2026.1.13914, and 2026.2.18095 contain a missing authorization check that permits any authenticated user to delete arbitrary entities via the mailbox endpoint. The CVE description confirms that the deletion capability is exposed without proper authorization, which can lead to loss of data or configuration items. The impact is a breach of integrity and could potentially affect application availability if critical entities are removed.

Affected Systems

JetBrains YouTrack products are impacted. Affected releases are any version older than 2025.3.156085, 2026.1.13914, or 2026.2.18095.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 8.1, indicating a high severity. EPSS data is not provided and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Since the flaw requires an authenticated user, the primary attack vector is likely through the exposed mailbox endpoint over the network. An attacker with valid credentials can target any entity for deletion, leading to data loss. Because the vulnerability does not require local access or specific privileged roles, it poses a significant risk especially in environments where user permissions are broad.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade JetBrains YouTrack to a version that is equal to or newer than 2025.3.156085, 2026.1.13914, or 2026.2.18095.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, tighten access to the mailbox endpoint by revoking deletion permissions from all users or disabling the endpoint through configuration or network filtering.
  • Ensure that recent backups exist and perform timely restore testing to mitigate potential data loss by quickly recovering removed entities.
