Your CI/CD holds the keys to production. And you treat it as a developer tool
On 27 July 2026 JetBrains published CVE-2026-63077: an unauthenticated 9.8 affecting EVERY version of TeamCity On-Premises and allowing operating system commands to be run on the build server. There is no known exploitation. The two previous times TeamCity had a flaw like this ended with Russia's SVR inside technology companies and with BianLian operators creating users on build servers. The underlying problem is not TeamCity: it is that the machine which deploys to production is in almost nobody's critical systems inventory.
