P4 Search (formerly Helix Search) allows an authenticated user holding administrative privileges on the connected P4 Server to supply a crafted logging configuration that causes files to be written or deleted outside the intended logging directory. This could lead to code execution as the P4 Search service account. This issue affects P4 Search 2026.4.2 and earlier.
Perforce resolved it in 2026.4.3.
