CVE-2026-100103: Perforce P4 Search lets anyone gain admin access
CVE-2026-100103 · published 5 days ago
Summary
Old Perforce P4 Search containers use a default password that anyone on the network can discover. This lets an outsider log in with the highest rights and potentially run any code on your P4 server. Update to the latest container version or change the authentication token and limit network exposure to fix the issue.

Original advisory text
Authentication bypass via default auth token in P4Search
Perforce P4 Search container images prior to 2026.4.2 reset the service authentication token to a publicly documented default value. An unauthenticated attacker with network access can obtain the highest application privilege, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution and compromise of the connected P4 Server.
