CVE-2026-82329: Potential authentication bypass leading to administrative access in Artifactory

Noroxi assessment

Priority: This week (action score 73/100)

CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Sep 2, 2026). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Sep 5, 2026.
A ready-made attack module is public (Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 14.3% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 96.6% of all records.
Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.

Don’t wait for the next maintenance window. Until a fix is released, restrict access to the affected component and follow the vendor's advisory.

Weakness class (CWE)

CWE-287 · Improper Authentication

CVSS vector

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

nvd-secondary

Root cause

Authentication is added route by route instead of being enforced in one place. When a route added later bypasses the shared middleware, the session check never runs for it.

The bug in code

The whole CWE-287 class

A representative example of this vulnerability class. Not the vendor's source code; it shows the faulty pattern and its fix.

Vulnerable

Fixed
