CVE-2021-46270Network attack vector

Repository-name disclosure via insufficient permission validation

Published Mar 2, 2022 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Broken access control in JFrog Artifactory before 7.31.10 allows remote authenticated users to list all repository names. The repository-listing operation validates Project Admin permissions insufficiently, returning names outside the administrator's assigned projects. Project Admin privileges are required, and the exposed data is limited to repository names rather than artifact contents.
