CVE-2026-77124: Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager

High severity, CVSS 7.2. EPSS: 0.7% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In affected versions of Nexus Repository 3, the script execution endpoint (POST /service/rest/v1/script/{name}/run) did not verify whether script execution had been administratively disabled. An account holding script-execution permission could continue to run previously-created scripts even after an administrator set nexus.scripts.allowCreation=false, undermining the expectation that this setting fully blocks script execution.

Affected products

  • Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager: from 3.21.2, before 3.96.0 (fixed in 3.96.0)
