Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
In JetBrains TeamCity before 2021.2.1, URL injection leading to CSRF was possible.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

In JetBrains TeamCity before version 2021.2.1, an attacker could potentially exploit a URL injection vulnerability to perform Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. This could allow an authenticated user to be tricked into executing unintended actions on the TeamCity server.

MitigationUpgrade TeamCity to version 2021.2.1 or later to remediate this vulnerability.

Verify against the referenced sources before acting — the references below are authoritative for this CVE, this summary is not.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate TeamCity version number
    Open the TeamCity web interface and view the version displayed on the login page or navigate to Administration > Server Administration > Server Configuration to see the installed version number
    Affected if The displayed version is any release prior to 2021.2.1 (for example, 2021.2.0, 2021.1.x, 2021.0.x, or earlier)
  2. Confirm exact version via API or logs
    Send a GET request to the TeamCity REST API endpoint /app/rest/server/version or check the teamcity-server.log file in the logs directory for the version string
    Affected if The returned version string or log entry shows a version lower than 2021.2.1
  3. Verify patch status
    Check if any manual patches or hotfixes have been applied to the TeamCity installation by reviewing the installation directory for patch files or consulting server documentation
    Affected if No patches have been applied and the base version remains below 2021.2.1

If the installed TeamCity version is 2021.2.1 or later, the environment is not affected by this CVE; any version below 2021.2.1 is potentially vulnerable to the URL injection/CSRF issue.
