CVE-2026-106492 | BDVDB-2026-384036 Detail
backstagebackstage
Description#
Backstage is an open framework for building developer portals. Prior to 0.16.1 and 0.17.8, the @backstage/backend-defaults package is affected by improper preservation of access restrictions during service credential delegation. An external service credential configured with access restrictions (e.g., read-only) could bypass those restrictions by routing requests through plugin delegation paths. This could allow a restricted service to perform operations beyond its intended scope, including write operations on plugins it was restricted to read-only access for. This issue is fixed in versions 0.16.1 and 0.17.8.
Impact#
Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact low, integrity impact high, availability impact low. Attack vector: network.
