Silent activity tracking via notification HTML injection
Published Jul 23, 2026 · Updated Jul 23, 2026
HTML injection in JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA before 2026.2 allows remote attackers to silently track user activity through an IDE notification. JetBrains identifies the notification as the injection locus but has not disclosed which input is rendered or what HTML neutralization is missing. Exploitation requires user interaction and is limited to covert activity tracking, with no reported data modification or service interruption.
