TeamCity auth bypass bug exploited to mass-generate admin accounts
2024-03-07 00:19

Hackers have started to exploit the critical-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in TeamCity On-Premises, which JetBrains addressed in an update on Monday.

LeakIX, a search engine for exposed device misconfigurations and vulnerabilities, told BleepingComputer that a little over 1,700 TeamCity servers have yet to receive the fix.

"Compromising a TeamCity server allows an attacker full control over all TeamCity projects, builds, agents and artifacts, and as such is a suitable vector to position an attacker to perform a supply chain attack" - Rapid7.

JetBrains annouced on Monday the release of TeamCity 2023.11.4 with a fix for CVE-2024-27198, encouraging all users to update instances to the latest version.

Exploit available for new critical TeamCity auth bypass bug, patch now.
