GHSA-qxpp-qjg8-x4jv: High severity npm/trigger.dev vulnerability
Summary The dashboard replay action authorizes the source run (it must belong to the caller's org), but the target environment for the replayed run is taken verbatim from the request body and is never checked for org or project membership. The environment lookup used by the replay path filters by id only. As a result, an authenticated user can replay one of their own runs into another organization's or project's environment, creating a task run there that consumes the victim tenant's queue and compute and pollutes their run history.
Details The replay action member-scopes the source run correctly (apps/webapp/app/routes/resources.taskruns.$runParam.replay.ts, the findFirst on taskRun filtered by project.organization.members.some.userId), but passes the target environment straight from the submitted form, resources.taskruns.$runParam.replay.ts:344-346: js const replayRunService = new ReplayTaskRunService(); const newRun = await replayRunService.call(taskRun, { environmentId: submission.value.environment, // attacker-controlled, unvalidated payload: submission.value.payload, ... }); submission.value.environment comes from ReplayRunData (apps/webapp/app/v3/replayTask.ts: environment: z.string().optional()), so it is fully client-controlled.
ReplayTaskRunService resolves it with no ownership check, apps/webapp/app/v3/services/replayTaskRun.server.ts:26-28: js const authenticatedEnvironment = await findEnvironmentById( overrideOptions.environmentId ?? existingTaskRun.runtimeEnvironmentId ); findEnvironmentById, apps/webapp/app/models/runtimeEnvironment.server.ts:197-211: js export async function findEnvironmentById(id) { const environment = await $replica.runtimeEnvironment.findFirst({ where: { id }, // no membership / org / project filter include: authIncludeWithParent, }); if (!environment || environment.project.deletedAt !== null) return null; return toAuthenticated(environment); } The resolved environment is then handed to TriggerTaskService.call (apps/webapp/app/v3/services/triggerTask.server.ts), which trusts the passed authenticatedEnvironment and performs no further authorization. The replay loader does constrain the environment picker to the run's own project (replay.ts around 178-184), but the action does not re-impose that constraint, so the server-side control is missing (UI-gated only).
PoC As an authenticated user who owns a run in their own org (run param runParam), and who knows a target environment id belonging to another org or project (a CUID, obtained or guessed): http POST /resources/taskruns/<own runParam>/replay Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
environment=<environment id of the victim org/project>&failedRedirect=/... The replay resolves the victim environment with no membership check and calls TriggerTaskService against it, creating a run in the victim tenant.
Live-validated: a Postgres database was seeded with two tenants (orgA with envA, orgB with envBvictim) and the verbatim findEnvironmentById lookup (findFirst joining the environment to its project, WHERE id = $1, the exact query the replay path runs) was executed with the victim env id as an orgA attacker. Captured: [002 replay findEnvironmentById] attacker(orgA) supplied envBvictim -> {"id":"envBvictim","organizationid":"orgB","projectid":"projB","deletedat":null} CROSS-TENANT: CONFIRMED (resolved another org's env with no membership check -> replay would run there) The lookup returned another organization's environment with no membership filter. That the replay action passes the client-supplied environmentId straight into this lookup (and TriggerTaskService trusts the returned env) is verified at source.
Impact An authenticated user can create task runs in another tenant's environment (including production), consuming that tenant's queue concurrency and compute and inserting entries into their run history. Practical exploitation requires knowing a target environment id (not enumerable) and, for the injected run to actually execute rather than error, a task identifier that exists in the target environment; this bounds reliability but not the unauthorized cross-tenant write itself.
Remediation In the replay action (or in ReplayTaskRunService), require the resolved target environment to belong to the source run's project/organization, for example assert environment.projectId === existingTaskRun.projectId, or re-validate the supplied environment id against the caller's membership (findEnvironmentBySlug with the validated projectId, or a members.some.userId filter), mirroring the constraint the loader already applies to the picker.

- Upgrade
Upgrade
npm/trigger.devto a version that resolves this vulnerability.Fixed in 4.5.2 - Compensating control
In the replay action or ReplayTaskRunService, authorize the target environment before calling TriggerTaskService by asserting environment.projectId === existingTaskRun.projectId, or by re-validating the supplied environment ID against the caller's membership using the validated project ID or a members.some.userId filter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can exploit this issue?
An authenticated user who belongs to an organization and can replay one of that organization's task runs can exploit it. They need to know or supply the identifier of a target environment that belongs to another organization or project.
What is the impact on a targeted tenant?
The attacker can create a replayed task run in the target tenant's environment. This can consume that tenant's queue and compute resources and add unauthorized entries to its run history.
Does the replay action validate that the selected environment belongs to the caller's organization or project?
No. The source run is member-scoped to the caller's organization, but the requested target environment is looked up by ID only and is not checked for organization or project membership.
