An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-86500 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: JetBrains YouTrack. 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-2026-86500/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-86500/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-86500","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-86500/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-86500","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-843f-mhf7-mfc4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Issue tracking software","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A user with project update permissions can escalate to Project Admin due to a missing escalation check in JetBrains YouTrack.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"JetBrains","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-266","name":"Incorrect Privilege Assignment"}],"description":"In JetBrains YouTrack before 2026.1.14047 a missing escalation check let a user with project update permissions grant themselves Project Admin","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in YouTrack","id":"CVE-2026-86500","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in IntelliJ IDEA","id":"CVE-2026-86501"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in YouTrack","id":"CVE-2026-86499"},"products":["YouTrack"],"published":"2026-09-07","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-08","vendors":["JetBrains"]},"summary":"A user with project update permissions can escalate to Project Admin due to a missing escalation check in JetBrains YouTrack.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-86500/"}
