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 2022.04.7, 2022.10.6, 2023.05.6, 2023.11.5 stored XSS via issue tracker integration 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 · high confidence

Stored XSS vulnerability in JetBrains TeamCity's issue tracker integration allows attackers to inject malicious scripts that persist on the server and execute when other users view the compromised issue tracker data. The vulnerability affects multiple versions prior to the patched releases.

MitigationUpgrade TeamCity to version 2022.04.7, 2022.10.6, 2023.05.6, 2023.11.5 or later. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, disable or restrict the issue tracker integration as a temporary measure.

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. Check installed TeamCity version
    Log into the TeamCity web UI as administrator, then navigate to 'Administration' > 'Server Administration' > 'Server Information' to view the exact version number. Alternatively, check the startup logs or the 'TeamCity/data/version.txt' file in the installation directory.
    Affected if The displayed version falls into any of these ranges: < 2022.04.7, >= 2022.10 and < 2022.10.6, >= 2023.05 and < 2023.05.6, or >= 2023.11 and < 2023.11.5
  2. Verify issue tracker integration status
    In the TeamCity web UI, go to 'Administration' > 'Issue Trackers' to see if any issue tracker connections (such as JetBrains YouTrack, GitHub, GitLab, or other integrated systems) are configured and enabled.
    Affected if Any issue tracker integration is configured and active on the server
  3. Check for custom issue tracker templates or third-party plugins
    Navigate to 'Administration' > 'Plugins' to list all installed plugins. Review any custom or third-party issue tracker-related plugins that may interface with external systems.
    Affected if Third-party or custom plugins related to issue tracking are installed

You are affected if your TeamCity version is below any of these thresholds (2022.04.7, 2022.10.6, 2023.05.6, or 2023.11.5) AND the issue tracker integration feature is configured or enabled.

Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.

Interim mitigation

Upgrade TeamCity to version 2022.04.7, 2022.10.6, 2023.05.6, 2023.11.5 or later. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, disable or restrict the issue tracker integration as a temporary measure.

Recommended fix High confidence

Upgrade to 2023.11.5 or later (latest stable release recommended)

  1. 1. Back up your TeamCity database and configuration files before upgrading
  2. 2. Download the fixed TeamCity version from jetbrains.com (2022.04.7, 2022.10.6, 2023.05.6, or 2023.11.5 or later)
  3. 3. Stop the TeamCity server and agents
  4. 4. Install the new version using the standard TeamCity upgrade procedure
  5. 5. Start the TeamCity server and verify the issue tracker integration works correctly
  6. 6. Validate that the XSS vulnerability is no longer present by testing issue tracker functionality
Caveat TeamCity upgrades may require database migration; review release notes for breaking changes between major versions
