Executive Summary

In JetBrains GoLand before 2026.2.2.1, there is a missing authentication mechanism on the GoLand profiler's injected pprof server. This flaw allows unauthorized access to profiling data, which could expose sensitive information about the application's performance and execution.

Detection Guidance

Check if GoLand is running with the profiler enabled by inspecting active network connections on port 6060 or similar profiling ports. Use commands like 'netstat -tulnp | grep 6060' or 'ss -tulnp | grep 6060' to detect listening pprof servers.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability could allow attackers to access profiling data, potentially revealing sensitive details about your application's behavior, performance bottlenecks, or internal workings. This information might be used to craft further attacks or gain insights into proprietary software.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade GoLand to version 2026.2.2.1 or later to address the missing authentication issue. If upgrading is not immediately possible, disable the profiler or restrict network access to the pprof server.
