Severity by source
AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Attacker needs a valid low-privilege token (PR:L) reachable over the network (AV:N) with no interaction; missing scope check grants broad repository read/write, so C/I/A High.
Primary rating from Vendor (JFROG).

JFrog Artifactory (Self Hosted) versions before 7.133.11 are vulnerable to a privilege escalation attack due to a validation check of the token signature/issuer and not the token’s scope.
AnalysisAI
Privilege escalation in JFrog Artifactory Self-Hosted before 7.133.11 lets a low-privileged authenticated user leverage a valid token beyond its intended permissions, because the platform validates the token's signature and issuer but never enforces the token's scope. An attacker holding any legitimately issued token can therefore access resources or perform actions the token was never authorized for, yielding high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to already possess a legitimately issued, cryptographically valid Artifactory access token (CVSS PR:L confirms an authenticated, low-privileged starting position) - this is the exact prerequisite, since the vulnerable path accepts any correctly signed token from a trusted issuer regardless of its scope. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals are mixed and point to a genuine but not urgent priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A developer or automation account is issued a narrowly scoped Artifactory token - for example, read-only access to a single repository. Because Artifactory validates only the token's signature and issuer and not its scope, the holder replays that token against privileged API endpoints or other repositories and gains write or administrative-level access it was never granted. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: upgrade JFrog Artifactory Self-Hosted to version 7.133.11 or later, which corrects the token validation to enforce scope; consult the JFrog security advisory at https://docs.jfrog.com/releases/docs/jfrog-security-advisories and the self-managed release notes at https://docs.jfrog.com/releases/docs/artifactory-self-managed-releases for the exact upgrade path. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
