In JetBrains YouTrack before 2026.2.18769 changing a mailbox host without re-authentication allowed a project administrator to exfiltrate stored mailbox credentials

AnalysisAI

Credential exfiltration in JetBrains YouTrack before 2026.2.18769 allows a project administrator to redirect stored mailbox credentials to an attacker-controlled server by modifying the mailbox host setting without triggering re-authentication. The missing re-authentication gate means any project admin who has been compromised, is malicious, or has temporarily elevated access can silently capture email account credentials (username and password) already stored in YouTrack. …
