How to Fix CVE-2026-69190

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

org.graylog2:graylog2-server fixed: 6.3.14
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.graylog2</groupId>
    <artifactId>graylog2-server</artifactId>
    <version>6.3.14</version>
</dependency>
org.graylog2:graylog2-server fixed: 7.0.9
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.graylog2</groupId>
    <artifactId>graylog2-server</artifactId>

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.graylog2</groupId>
    <artifactId>graylog2-server</artifactId>
    <version>7.1.4</version>
</dependency>
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

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

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.graylog2

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-69190, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.graylog2

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Graylog in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 6.3.14), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=org.graylog2 command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

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 Graylog, 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

### Impact A vulnerability was found in Graylog's API endpoint for updating saved searches and dashboards. A user with edit permissions on a dashboard or saved search could grant owner permissions to an arbitrary account, which could then be used to delete the respective saved search or dashboard or to remove the original owner's access. ### Patches This issue has been patched in the following Graylog versions: `6.3.14`, `7.0.9`, `7.1.4`. Affected users should upgrade to one of these versions or above to remediate the vulnerability. Graylog Cloud has already been patched. ### Workaround There is no known workaround. Upgrading to a patched version is recommended. ### Credits Thanks to [Jan Kahmen](https://github.com/kah-ja), [turingpoint](https://www.turingpoint.de) for reporting.
