Summary

Trigger.dev before 4.5.12 has a missing authorization check in its waitpoint complete route. Authenticated project members can complete another member's DEVELOPMENT environment waitpoint because the per-user environment ownership check is skipped. An attacker who knows a victim's waitpoint friendly ID can submit a DATETIME or MANUAL type with isTimeout to mark the pending waitpoint completed early. CISA SSVC rates exploitation as proof of concept, and the CVSS 4.0 base score is 2.3.
