CVE-2026-65922 is an authorization weakness in JFrog Artifactory affecting handling of trusted internal .jfrog/ metadata paths. Under specific conditions, a user with limited but valid repository access can reach restricted internal metadata locations through operations that bypass the protections normally applied to standard uploads. Reported reachable paths include the REST COPY API, REST MOVE API, and WebDAV MKCOL, which could be used to place or create content in trusted internal metadata areas. The issue stems from Artifactory treating .jfrog/ paths as trusted during authorization checks, enabling unauthorized writes to metadata consumed by package-handling features such as npm signing keys, OCI referrers, Docker indexes, and Ansible indexes. The vulnerability affects integrity and availability rather than confidentiality.
