GoCD is a continuous deliver server. From 16.1.0 until 26.1.0, the internal material connection test APIs at /go/api/admin/internal/material_test and /go/api/internal/config_repos/*/material_test accept an arbitrary existing pipeline and pipeline-group context without sufficient validation. A pipeline group administrator can invoke Test Connection for source control materials outside the administrator's authorized pipeline group or configuration repository and potentially use credentials from those materials. For GoCD 20.6.0 and later, the test context can also resolve external secrets managed by secret-management plugins, including global reusable secrets with separate permissions. This issue is fixed in version 26.1.0.
CVE-2026-55625
This medium-severity CVE scores 4.9 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.5%, top 63% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
