JFrog Artifactory
CVE-2026-82329
JFrog Artifactory contains an improper authentication vulnerability that under default configuration can allow an unauthenticated attacker with network access to obtain administrative privileges.
What this means for your business
- It affects JFrog Artifactory. It matters if your company, or a supplier that handles your data, runs it.
- Attackers are already using it. CISA added it to its list of flaws used in real attacks on 2 September 2026.
- An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.
- FIRST's prediction model gives it a 8% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 94% of all known flaws.
What to do
- 1Check whether your company or your suppliers run JFrog Artifactory, and which version. The affected versions are listed further down this page.
- 2If you do, apply the vendor's fix. A patch or vendor advisory has been published.
- 3Treat it as urgent. US federal agencies must fix it by 5 September 2026. That deadline does not apply to private companies, but it shows how seriously CISA takes it.
- 4Because attackers have used it, check the affected systems for signs of a break-in, not only for the update.

Required action
Apply mitigations in accordance with vendor instructions, ensuring compliance with CISA’s BOD 26-04 Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk (see URL in Notes) guidance and CISA’s “Forensics Triage Requirements” (see URL in Notes). Follow applicable BOD 26-04 guidance for cloud services or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
