## How to fix

- Fixed in Toolbox App 3.6.1

## Technical details

A cross-origin SVG icon loading vulnerability in Toolbox App versions before 3.6.1 allows unauthenticated NTLM credential leakage. When the application renders SVG tool icons from a Remote Development server, the SVG processing triggers automatic NTLM authentication with embedded credentials, allowing the remote server to capture hashes. This requires the attacker to control or compromise the Remote Development server.

## Affected products

- JetBrains Toolbox App before 3.6.1
