The FireFighter application could allow external attackers to manipulate system requests to retrieve temporary AWS credentials. This potentially exposes your cloud infrastructure, operational systems, and sensitive data to compromise.
CVE-2026-42864
Exposure facts
H – Horizon Alert
FireFighter, our incident management application, contains a security vulnerability that allows unauthorized users to access a specific feature without requiring credentials. Because this feature fetches data from user-provided web addresses without validation, it could be manipulated to interact with internal resources. This creates a risk where sensitive cloud infrastructure credentials associated with the application could be exposed to unauthorized parties.
A – Asset Exposure
FireFighter, an incident management application, contains a vulnerability within its Jira integration endpoint that allows unauthorized interaction. If the application is deployed on AWS infrastructure without specific identity protections, this flaw may permit an external party to manipulate the system to retrieve temporary AWS credentials. This could result in unauthorized access to your cloud infrastructure, operational systems, or sensitive data stored within those environments.
L – Live Threat
This issue involves an unauthenticated endpoint in the incident management application that could be misused to coerce the system into accessing arbitrary web addresses. In specific cloud configurations, this capability may allow for the unauthorized retrieval of temporary system credentials. The available context does not indicate active exploitation or observed targeting of this vulnerability at this time.
O – Operational Fix
Please update the FireFighter application to the latest available release to address an access control vulnerability within the incident management system. This update implements the necessary security controls to prevent unauthorized internal requests and protect your cloud environment configurations. We recommend that operations teams prioritize this deployment to restore secure, authorized operations for your team.
