AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 23, 2026

Arbitrary code execution in JetBrains WebStorm before 2026.2 allows a malicious project to run attacker-controlled code on a developer's machine by supplying a crafted linter configuration that the IDE trusts and executes when the project is opened. Reported by JetBrains itself (cve@jetbrains.com) and tagged RCE, the flaw carries CVSS 7.8 (high) with a local vector and required user interaction. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing, indicating no confirmed active exploitation to date.

DescriptionCVE.org

In JetBrains WebStorm before 2026.2 arbitrary code execution was possible via a project-supplied linter configuration

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

JetBrains WebStorm versions before 2026.2 allow arbitrary code execution when developers open projects with malicious linter configurations, creating a direct path to compromise developer machines and potentially inject malicious code into source repositories. Development teams face significant supply chain risk.

Recommended Action

Within 24 hours, inventory WebStorm installations and restrict opening of untrusted projects. Within 7 days, implement mandatory code review of linter configuration files (.eslintrc, .stylelintrc, etc.) before project initialization and disable automatic linter execution in WebStorm settings as interim protection. Within 30 days, upgrade all WebStorm instances to version 2026.2 or later upon release and validate that no malicious configurations were committed to repositories.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: restrict WebStorm to trusted projects only; implement mandatory code review of linter configurations; disable automatic linter execution; isolate development workstations from production systems; monitor for suspicious configuration files and unexpected code execution.

What every action level means
Emergency Immediate action required. Criteria: CRITICAL + in CISA KEV (actively exploited) without patch, OR CRITICAL + EPSS > 30% without patch, OR CRITICAL + active threat signals without patch.
Act Now Prioritize within 24-48h. Criteria: in KEV with patch available, OR CRITICAL + public POC, OR HIGH + EPSS > 10%, OR CRITICAL + active threat, OR any CRITICAL severity.
This Week Schedule remediation this week. Criteria: HIGH severity (CVSS 7.0-8.9). Patch within normal change window.
This Month Plan within 30 days. Criteria: MEDIUM severity (CVSS 4.0-6.9), lower exploitation probability. Include in regular patch cycle.
Monitor Track and reassess. Criteria: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9), minimal exploitation risk. No immediate action needed.
