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 · high confidenceStored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in JetBrains TeamCity versions 2024.03 through 2024.03.1. The flaw exists in the 'available updates' page where malicious scripts can be injected and persistently stored, executing when other users view the affected page.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Check TeamCity server versionLog into the TeamCity administrative interface and navigate to Administration > Server Administration > Server Configuration. The version is displayed on the main server information page or in the footer of the web interface.Affected if The installed version is 2024.03 or 2024.03.1 (versions 2024.03 through 2024.03.1 are affected)
-
Confirm access to the available updates pageNavigate to Administration > Server Administration > Available Updates. This page displays information about available updates for the TeamCity installation.Affected if The page loads successfully and displays update information, indicating the vulnerable feature is enabled
-
Inspect page source for potential XSS vectorsRight-click on the Available Updates page and select View Page Source. Examine the HTML output for any user-controlled fields that might be reflected without proper encoding, particularly version numbers, update descriptions, or plugin names.Affected if The page source shows unescaped HTML characters in update-related fields that could be manipulated
-
Review server logs for XSS indicatorsExamine TeamCity server logs located in the <TeamCity data directory>/logs directory, particularly teamcity-server.log and teamcity-events.log, for any unusual script tags or JavaScript code patterns in update-related entries.Affected if Logs contain script tags or JavaScript code snippets associated with the Available Updates functionality
You are affected if your TeamCity installation is version 2024.03 or 2024.03.1 and the Available Updates page is accessible to administrators.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedUpgrade TeamCity to version 2024.03.2 or later. If immediate patching is not possible, restrict access to the updates page to trusted administrators only.
2024.03.1
- 1. Back up your TeamCity instance before performing any upgrade
- 2. Download TeamCity 2024.03.1 from the official JetBrains website (www.jetbrains.com/teamcity/download)
- 3. Review the upgrade notes for 2024.03.1 for any specific migration requirements
- 4. Stop the TeamCity server
- 5. Install version 2024.03.1 following the standard upgrade procedure
- 6. Verify the upgrade was successful by logging into the web interface
- 7. Confirm the 'available updates' page no longer contains the XSS vulnerability
