Data access via widget sandbox popup escape
Published Jul 28, 2025 · Updated Jul 28, 2025
Improper iframe restriction in JetBrains YouTrack before the listed fixed builds allows remote attackers to escape widget sandbox limits. The iframe configuration permits widget-created popups to bypass restrictions intended to confine the widget, although JetBrains has not disclosed the specific attribute or code path. Exploitation requires user interaction with widget content and can expose or modify data available to the escaped popup context.
