How to Fix CVE-2026-88978

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Github.com/hatchet dev/hatchet dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

github.com/hatchet-dev/hatchet fixed: 0.106.1
Upgrade github.com/hatchet-dev/hatchet to 0.106.1
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

inspect dependencies for github.com/hatchet-dev/hatchet

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2026-88978, inspect your project dependencies for Github.com/hatchet dev/hatchet:

inspect dependencies for github.com/hatchet-dev/hatchet

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Github.com/hatchet dev/hatchet in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.106.1), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key, where the system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data. In Github.com/hatchet dev/hatchet, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

# Cross-tenant disclosure risk on `DurableTask` bidi RPC This is a low-severity, low-risk cross-tenant data exposure vuln caused by blindly accepting a durable task id, in addition to a list of node and branch ids that identify records in that task's event log, and returning them to the caller via the `handleWorkerStatus` polling path. # Impact This advisory requires an attacker to successfully guess a durable task's external uuid belonging to another tenant. External ids are generated uuid v4s (`uuid.New()` in Go), so exploitation requires prior knowledge of a target task UUID through an out-of-band channel. Thus, while the following environments are impacted, there is an extremely low probability it would be exploited. ### Who is impacted. Any Hatchet deployment that hosts more than one tenant on the same instance: * Hatchet Cloud (multi-tenant SaaS) * Self-hosted Hatchet with multiple internal teams / business units sharing one instance * Any deployment where a single tenant's API token can be obtained by an attacker Single-tenant self-hosted deployments are unaffected in practice (the "victim" and "attacker" tenants would be the same).
