CVE-2026-52744: GoCD is vulnerable to authorization bypass via fetch artifact autosuggestion API

Published Sep 23, 2026
·
Updated

GoCD is a continuous deliver server. From 20.2.0 until 26.1.0, the internal GoCD UI fetch-artifact auto-suggestion API at /go/api/internal/pipelines//upstream does not adequately authorize access to upstream dependency data. An authenticated user can retrieve inter-pipeline dependency hierarchy details and user-defined pipeline, stage, job, and artifact plugin reference names that the user cannot otherwise view in the UI. The endpoint is read-only and does not permit modification of pipeline data. This issue is fixed in version 26.1.0.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who can exploit this issue, and what access do they need?

An attacker must be authenticated to GoCD. They can use the internal fetch-artifact auto-suggestion endpoint to retrieve upstream dependency information that is not otherwise visible to their account in the UI.

2

What information can be exposed?

The issue can disclose inter-pipeline dependency hierarchy details and user-defined names for pipelines, stages, jobs, and artifact plugin references. The affected endpoint is read-only, so it does not allow pipeline data to be modified.

3

Which deployments are affected and how should they be remediated?

GoCD versions from 20.2.0 until 26.1.0 are affected. Upgrade to version 26.1.0, which fixes the authorization issue.
