CVE-2026-114079: Trigger.dev authorization bypass in deployment cancellation

CVE-2026-114079 · Severity: medium · CVSS 5.4 · Published 2026-10-21

Trigger.dev is a platform for managing automated deployments and workflows across multiple environments (dev, staging, production). An attacker holding a lower-trust API key for development or preview environments can cancel production deployments in the same project without permission, causing service disruptions. This occurs because the deployment cancellation endpoint does not verify the environment matches the authenticated key, unlike the read endpoint which correctly enforces this restriction.

Technical details

The vulnerability is an authorization bypass (CWE-639) in the DeploymentService.getDeployment() method, which scopes deployment lookups by projectId only and omits environmentId validation. An authenticated user with a dev, preview, or CI environment API key can POST to the deployment cancel endpoint and cancel in-progress deployments (PENDING, INSTALLING, BUILDING, DEPLOYING states) in any environment of the same project, including production. The deployment GET route correctly enforces environment scoping, creating an asymmetric authorization flaw.
