trigger.devnpmDescription
Summary
The POST handler for /realtime/v1/streams/:runId/:streamId has no authentication. Any entity that knows or guesses a run friendlyId can inject arbitrary data into its realtime stream.
Vulnerability Details
File: apps/webapp/app/routes/realtime.v1.streams.$runId.$streamId.ts
The action handler (line 17) has no auth wrapper. The code comment says: "Plain action for backwards compatibility with older clients that don't send auth headers."
The run lookup at line 29 uses where: { friendlyId: runId } with NO environment scoping (runtimeEnvironmentId is not checked), so production runs are accessible.
Run friendlyIds follow predictable patterns (e.g., run_1234abcd).
Steps to Reproduce
# No authentication required
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8030/realtime/v1/streams/run_KNOWN_ID/stream_1" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"injected": "data"}'
Impact
Unauthenticated data injection into any run realtime stream. Cross-environment access (no scoping).

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for trigger.dev, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update trigger.dev to 4.5.5 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-114086 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Put an independent control in front of the weakness: restrict the affected endpoint or interface to trusted networks, require an additional authentication factor or proxy-level check, and invalidate existing sessions and credentials in case the flaw has already been used.
