Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in BazelBuild intellij. It has been declared as problematic. Affected by this vulnerability is the function getInstance of the component Import Project Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a input validation vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-862. The product does not perform an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action. The impact remains unknown. The summary by CVE is:

When Bazel Plugin in intellij imports a project (either using "import project" or "Auto import") the dialog for trusting the project is not displayed. This comes from the fact that both call the method ProjectBuilder.createProject which then calls ProjectManager.getInstance().createProject. This method, as its name suggests is intended to create a new project, not to import an existing one. We recommend upgrading to version 2024.06.04.0.2 or beyond for the IntelliJ, CLion and Android Studio Bazel plugins.
