CVE-2026-114071 triggerdotdev CVE debrief

Who should care

Defenders and administrators of Trigger.dev environments should assess exposure and verify configurations to ensure proper access controls are in place. This includes reviewing environment settings, monitoring for suspicious activity, and updating to version 4.5.12 or later. Prioritization should be given to environments with sensitive data or critical workflows.

Why it matters

CVE-2026-114071 is an authorization bypass vulnerability in Trigger.dev before version 4.5.12 that allows authenticated project members to complete another member's DEVELOPMENT environment waitpoint. Defenders should verify environment configurations and ensure proper access controls are in place.

• Potential disruption of DEVELOPMENT environment workflows
• Unintended actions due to bypassed access controls
• Need for verification of environment configurations and access controls

Technical summary

The vulnerability allows authenticated project members to complete another member's DEVELOPMENT environment waitpoint by skipping the per-user environment ownership check. This could lead to unintended actions or disruptions in workflows. Attackers who know a victim's waitpoint friendly ID can submit type=DATETIME or type=MANUAL with isTimeout to prematurely mark the pending waitpoint completed. Defenders should prioritize verifying environment configurations and ensuring proper access controls are in place to mitigate potential disruptions or unauthorized actions.

Defensive priority

Defenders should prioritize verifying environment configurations and ensuring proper access controls are in place.

Recommended defensive actions

• Verify Trigger.dev environment configurations to ensure proper access controls
• Update Trigger.dev to version 4.5.12 or later
• Monitor for suspicious activity related to waitpoint completion
• Review compensating controls for exposed systems while remediation is scheduled and verified
• Check relevant monitoring, detection, and logs for exposed assets that need extra review
• Track exceptions, retest remediated assets, and close the item only after evidence is documented
• Confirm whether affected product deployments exist in managed environments and assign an owner for follow-up
