An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-21582 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Atlassian Crowd Data Center. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-21582/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-21582/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-21582","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-21582/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-21582","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vxxr-hxj5-58vp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Crowd Data Center","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can perform actions as another user in Crowd Data Center, requiring an upgrade to mitigate.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"atlassian","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"This High severity BASM (Broken Authentication \u0026 Session Management) vulnerability known as CVE-2026-21582 was introduced in version 7.2.1 of Crowd Data Center.\r\n\r\nThis BASM (Broken Authentication \u0026 Session Management) vulnerability, with a CVSS Score of 8.8, allows an unauthenticated attacker to perform actions as another user.\r\n\t\r\n\tAtlassian recommends that Crowd Data Center customers upgrade to latest version, if you are unable to do so, upgrade your instance to one of the specified supported fixed versions:\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\tCrowd Data Center 7.2: Upgrade to a release greater than or equal to 7.2.2\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\r\n\tSee the release notes (https://confluence.atlassian.com/crowd/crowd-release-notes-199094.html).
