In JetBrains YouTrack before 2026.2.18634 the generic VCS webhook handler failed open when its secret was blank

AnalysisAI

The generic VCS webhook handler in JetBrains YouTrack before 2026.2.18634 fails open when no webhook secret is configured, allowing unauthenticated remote callers to trigger webhook processing without any valid credential check. This CWE-306 flaw means that deployments where the webhook secret field is intentionally or inadvertently left blank accept all inbound webhook payloads as legitimate, bypassing the shared-secret verification mechanism. …
