Summary

Trigger.dev before 4.6.0 contains a missing authorization flaw in its waitpoint token wait endpoint, classified as CWE-639 (authorization bypass through a user-controlled key). An authenticated attacker holding any secret API key can supply another organization's run ID with the attacker's own waitpoint, blocking that run indefinitely and injecting resume data into it. The CVSS 4.0 vector rates the attack as network-based with low privileges and no user interaction.
