Exploits began within hours of the original disclosure, so patch now

Rapid7 says it reported the two TeamCity vulnerabilities in mid-February, claiming JetBrains soon after suggested releasing patches for the flaws before publicly disclosing them.

Rapid7 claims that after more than a week of radio silence from JetBrains on the coordinated disclosure matter, Rapid7 spotted fresh patches for CVE-2024-27198 and CVE-2024-27199 on Monday, without a published security advisory and without telling the researchers. While JetBrains prepares to tell its side of the story – see the update below – members of the infosec community have"I know from previously working on that team that we tried hard to be friendly and cooperative with vendors. The fact that Rapid7 calls them out on their behavior means it must have been bad.

It's worth noting that CVE-2024-27198 attracts a higher severity score because it could allow attackers to take full administrative control of a TeamCity server and achieve unauthenticated remote code execution. JetBrains says these only affect the on-prem version of TeamCity. Cloud versions are already patched and weren't attacked prior to disclosure.
