Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Trigger.dev self-hosted v4 deployments before 4.5.6 (npm package trigger.dev) that use the default secrets in the provided Docker Compose example configuration are affected. An unauthenticated attacker who knows those published default secrets can forge login links for any email address, then reach internal services such as the database, Redis and ClickHouse, which the source says lack proper authentication. The source describes complete compromise of tenant data and infrastructure. Upgrade to version 4.5.6 or later, and replace the default secrets in the example environment file.
