CVE-2026-106510
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-4488-j8vj-vqqv ↗EUVD-2026-94369 ↗
description
Backstage deployments using affected TechDocs components can execute attacker-supplied operating-system commands on the documentation build host. Exploitation requires an authenticated user who is permitted to register a catalog entity that influences the TechDocs MkDocs configuration.
mitigation
Upgrade backstage to 1.50.5 or 1.54.6 and plugin-techdocs-node to 1.14.6 or 1.15.4, as applicable. Until upgrades are complete, use the external TechDocs builder, limit entity-registration permissions, and review existing MkDocs configuration for suspicious extension settings.
fixed in 1.14.6, 1.15.4
outcome
Contextual check: a technique exists and was validated, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
