CVE-2024-27199
Jetbrains
CVE-2024-27199: A path traversal vulnerability exists in JetBrains TeamCity versions prior to 2023.11.4, potentially enabling attackers to execute limited admin actions. Despite a CVSS score of 7.3, SOCRadar's Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) is 30, indicating a lower immediate threat level than some other vulnerabilities, although exploitation is possible. This vulnerability, categorized as CWE-23, allows unauthorized access to files and directories outside of the intended path, leading to potential data breaches and system compromise. The presence of the "In The Wild" tag means exploitation has been observed. Organizations using affected TeamCity versions should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access and maintain system security. While not critically urgent based on SVRS, the potential for exploitation necessitates timely remediation.
