Perforce P4 Search prior to 2026.4.2 trusts a client-supplied address when validating certain authentication requests. An attacker holding a stolen P4 Server ticket can bypass host-based ticket restrictions and trusted-address controls, gaining access to P4 Search as the tickets owner.
Weakness
This attack-focused weakness is caused by incorrectly implemented authentication schemes that are subject to spoofing attacks.
