CVE-2026-66885: CWE-352 Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in livebook-dev livebook
CVE-2026-66885 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in livebook-dev livebook when configured with Livebook Teams for identity. An attacker in the same Livebook Teams organization can cause a victim's browser session to authenticate as the attacker by tricking the victim into using a crafted URL with an authorization code. This results in the victim unknowingly operating under the attacker's identity, exposing any work or secrets to the attacker. The vulnerability affects livebook versions from 0.15.0 before 0.18.7 and from 0.19.0 before 0.19.9. The CVSS 4.0 score is 6.8 (medium severity).
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The vulnerability arises because the OAuth-style callback handling in livebook-dev livebook does not verify any state or nonce tying the authorization code to the initiating browser session. The login flow does not generate or register any per-attempt value, allowing an attacker who shares the same Livebook Teams organization to initiate a login flow, capture the authorization code, and then trick a victim into redeeming that code. The victim's session is then bound to the attacker's identity, not their own. This leads to the victim unknowingly performing actions and exposing data under the attacker's account. The authorization code must be redeemed shortly after issuance, limiting the attack window but not its feasibility.
Potential Impact
An attacker can cause a victim's browser session to authenticate as the attacker rather than the victim, leading to the victim's actions and data being attributed to and accessible by the attacker. This does not allow the attacker to authenticate as the victim, but it compromises session integrity and confidentiality of the victim's work and secrets within the livebook environment.
Mitigation Recommendations

Until a patch is available, users should be cautious when clicking on unsolicited or suspicious URLs related to Livebook Teams authentication flows.
