Openshift/console: openshift/console: unauthenticated path traversal in i18n locale handler

A flaw was found in the OpenShift console. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit a path traversal vulnerability by manipulating the `lng` and `ns` query parameters in the `/locales/resource.json` endpoint. This allows the attacker to read sensitive `*.json` files from the pod filesystem, including plugin manifests and configuration files. Furthermore, this flaw can enable path traversal against registered dynamic-plugin backends.

CVE-2026-75885 Critical · 9.3 CWE-918 Sep 18, 2026

Openshift/console: openshift/console: unauthenticated ssrf and resource exhaustion via devfile parser endpoint

A flaw was found in the OpenShift console. Unauthenticated access to the `/api/devfile/` and `/api/devfile/samples/` endpoints allows a remote attacker to send crafted devfile payloads. This can lead to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), where the console pod makes requests to internal services and reflects partial responses to the attacker. Additionally, by sending repeated large requests without a specified content length, an attacker can cause unbounded memory growth, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).

CVE-2026-50237 High · 7.4 CWE-918 Aug 11, 2026

Openshift/console: namespace tenant ssrf with egress bypass, catalog poisoning, and admin-mediated supply chain escalation via projecthelmchartrepository in openshift console

A Server-Side Request Forgery and supply chain flaw was found in the OpenShift Console Helm catalog proxy. A namespace tenant can plant a ProjectHelmChartRepository with an arbitrary URL that the console pod fetches server-side, bypassing tenant egress restrictions. Combined with catalog metadata poisoning and admin-mediated chart installation, this enables privilege escalation.

CVE-2026-50236 High · 7.4 CWE-918 Aug 11, 2026

Openshift/console: authenticated ssrf with full response reflection and path neutralization via dev console webhook helpers in openshift console

An authenticated SSRF flaw was found in the OpenShift Console Dev Console webhook helpers. User-supplied target URLs are fetched server-side without validation, with path neutralization enabling arbitrary endpoint targeting and full response reflection from the console pod's privileged network position.

CVE-2026-15816 High · 7.5 CWE-78 Aug 7, 2026

Dracut: dracut: root code execution via unescaped error message written to sourced emergency hook script in die()

A flaw was found in dracut. The die() error-handling function writes its message into a shell script under the initramfs emergency-hook directory without properly shell-quoting it. When the message contains data derived from the DHCP ROOT_PATH option, an attacker on the adjacent network who controls a rogue DHCP server can inject a command-substitution sequence that executes as root the next time dracut sources its emergency hook scripts during standard boot-failure handling.

CVE-2026-16313 High · 7.6 CWE-93 Jul 28, 2026

Sg3_utils: sg3_utils: arbitrary command execution via udev property injection in sg_inq --export

A flaw was found in sg3_utils. The sg_inq command, when invoked with the --export option, outputs device identification data without sanitizing control characters in SCSI name string fields. A newline character embedded in a device-supplied name string can inject arbitrary properties into the udev device database. This could allow an attacker who can present a crafted SCSI device to execute arbitrary commands as root when the device is disconnected.

CVE-2026-49332 High · 8.5 CWE-436 Jul 28, 2026

Openshift/oauth-proxy: openshift/oauth-proxy: underscore header smuggling enables identity impersonation on wsgi/php upstreams

A flaw was found in openshift/oauth-proxy. The proxy sets authenticated identity headers using only dash-variant keys (X-Forwarded-User) but does not strip underscore-variant keys (X_Forwarded_User) from incoming requests. WSGI and PHP frameworks normalize both variants to the same variable, allowing an authenticated low-privilege user to smuggle a forged identity that may override the legitimate authenticated identity in the upstream application.

CVE-2026-16242 Critical · 9.4 CWE-306 Jul 20, 2026

Hypershift: konnectivity proxy-server accepts agent connections without validating client certificates

A flaw was found in the Konnectivity proxy-server configuration for hosted control planes. The agent-facing listener was started without --cluster-ca-cert (and without token-based agent authentication), so client certificates were not validated. A remote attacker who can reach the Konnectivity cluster endpoint could connect as an unauthenticated agent, join the routing pool, and potentially proxy, inspect, modify, or drop control-plane-to-node traffic.

CVE-2026-15809 High · 7.8 CWE-134 Jul 15, 2026

Github.com/cri-o/cri-o: fix bypass for cve-2022-4318 — /etc/passwd injection via home env

A flaw was found in CRI-O. The fix for a previous vulnerability (CVE-2022-4318) was incorrect, allowing it to be bypassed. An attacker capable of setting environment variables on a container can inject a newline character into the HOME environment variable. This issue allows the addition of arbitrary lines into /etc/passwd by use of a specially crafted environment variable.

CVE-2026-14476 High · 8.0 CWE-23 Jul 7, 2026

Sssd: sssd: gpo cache path traversal via unsanitized gpcfilesyspath allows kerberos authentication bypass

A path traversal flaw was found in SSSD's AD GPO provider. The ad_gpo_extract_smb_components() function does not sanitize .. sequences in the gPCFileSysPath LDAP attribute, allowing an attacker with AD GPO management access to write files outside the GPO cache directory as root. On default RHEL configurations with SELinux enforcing, this can be used to inject Kerberos configuration leading to authentication bypass.

CVE-2026-14474 High · 8.8 CWE-1188 Jul 7, 2026

Sssd: sssd: sudo ldap provider searches entire directory tree for sudorole objects by default, enabling privilege escalation

A flaw was found in SSSD's LDAP sudo provider. When the ldap_sudo_search_base option is not explicitly configured, SSSD searches the entire LDAP directory tree for sudoRole objects. An authenticated attacker with write access to any subtree can inject a sudoRole object granting root-level sudo privileges on all SSSD-enrolled hosts.

CVE-2026-58014 High · 8.6 CWE-193 Jun 30, 2026

Glib: off-by-one error in glib/gkeyfile.c via "g_key_file_get_locale_string_list"

A flaw was found in GLib. An off-by-one error can occur in the g_key_file_get_locale_string_list function in the gkeyfile.c file when loading a key file with an empty value. This flaw can cause an out-of-bounds access of 1 byte or a denial of service when the out-of-bounds access crosses a page boundary.

CVE-2026-14164 High · 7.5 CWE-415 Jun 30, 2026

Libarchive: double-free vulnerability in rar5 decompression logic via dangling filtered_buf pointer in init_unpack()

A double free issue has been identified in libarchive's RAR5 reader. During parsing of a specially crafted RAR5 archive, the filtered_buf pointer may remain stale after being freed during unpacking state reinitialization. Subsequent processing of another archive entry can trigger a second free of the same memory region, resulting in a double-free condition. Successful exploitation may cause applications using the vulnerable libarchive API to terminate unexpectedly, leading to a denial of service.

CVE-2026-6893 High · 7.5 CWE-78 Jun 10, 2026

Dracut: dracut: root code execution via dhcp options command injection

A flaw was found in dracut. A remote attacker on the adjacent network can exploit this vulnerability by providing specially crafted DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) options, such as a malicious hostname, to a system using dracut's legacy DHCP path. These options are improperly handled and written into temporary shell scripts without proper escaping, leading to command injection. This allows the attacker to achieve root code execution within the initramfs, potentially compromising the system's boot and network behavior.

CVE-2026-1784 High · 8.8 CWE-15 Jun 2, 2026

Ose-cluster-ingress-operator: remote code execution through haproxy configuration injection

The Route OpenShift resource allows to define routes to make pods reachable at a subdomain through HAProxy. It was found that the checks performed on the spec.path YAML stanza in a Route document was insufficient and could allow a controlled injection of the HAProxy configuration.

CVE-2026-46579 High · 7.5 CWE-287 May 29, 2026

Openshift/router: openshift/router: mtls client certificate spoofing via unstripped x-ssl-client headers on http frontend

A flaw was found in the OpenShift Router. When a Route has `insecureEdgeTerminationPolicy` set to Allow, the HTTP frontend does not remove `X-SSL-Client-*` headers from incoming requests. This allows an unauthenticated attacker to send plain HTTP requests with crafted `X-SSL-Client-*` headers. As a result, backends relying on these headers for mutual TLS (Transport Layer Security) authentication can be bypassed, enabling the attacker to impersonate client certificate identities.

CVE-2026-4408 Critical · 9.8 CWE-78 May 28, 2026

Samba: remote code execution in samr

A flaw was found in Samba. A remote attacker can exploit a misconfiguration in Samba file servers and classic domain controllers that use the "check password script" feature. If this script is configured with the %u substitution character, the client-controlled username is passed without proper escaping of shell meta-characters. This vulnerability allows an attacker to achieve remote command execution on the affected system. This issue primarily affects non-standard configurations where the "check password script" is used with %u and the samba-dcerpcd service is started as a system service.

CVE-2026-2340 Medium · 6.5 CWE-280 May 27, 2026

Samba: vfs_worm does not block directory modification

A flaw was found in Samba’s vfs_worm module. The module is intended to provide write-once, read-many (WORM) protections by preventing modification of files after a configurable grace period. Due to insufficient validation during rename operations, an authenticated user with write access to a share could overwrite a protected file by renaming a newly created file over the existing WORM-protected file.

CVE-2026-1933 Medium · 6.5 CWE-284 May 27, 2026

Samba: missing access check on reparse point operations

A flaw was found in Samba’s handling of NTFS-style reparse points on shares configured with read only = yes. Due to missing SMB-layer access checks, authenticated users with underlying filesystem write permissions may create or delete reparse point metadata through SMB operations even on read-only exports. This could allow modification of SMB-visible file behavior, including converting files into symbolic links or other reparse point types.

CVE-2026-3012 Medium · 6.8 CWE-345 May 27, 2026

Samba: group policy certificate enrollment uses http:// without validation

A flaw was found in Samba’s certificate auto-enrollment Group Policy handling. When certificate auto-enrollment is enabled, Samba may retrieve a CA certificate over an unencrypted HTTP connection and install it into the local trust store without proper verification. An attacker with the ability to intercept or redirect network traffic could exploit this behavior to supply a malicious certificate authority certificate, potentially allowing interception or spoofing of trusted communications.

CVE-2026-5260 High · 8.2 CWE-126 May 26, 2026

Gnutls: gnutls: information disclosure via heap overread in rsa key exchange

A flaw was found in libgnutls. A remote attacker, by sending an extremely short premaster secret during an RSA key exchange to a server using an RSA key backed by a PKCS#11 token, could trigger a short heap overread. This memory corruption vulnerability could lead to information disclosure.

CVE-2026-42013 High · 8.2 CWE-295 May 26, 2026

Gnutls: gnutls: certificate validation bypass due to oversized subject alternative name

A flaw was found in gnutls. When validating certificates, an oversized Subject Alternative Name (SAN) could cause the validation process to incorrectly fall back to checking the Common Name (CN) field. This could allow a remote attacker to bypass proper certificate validation, potentially leading to spoofing or man-in-the-middle attacks.

CVE-2026-48864 High · 7.8 CWE-787 May 26, 2026

Libsolv: heap buffer overflow in libsolv repopagestore via unchecked decompression of malicious .solv page data

A flaw was found in libsolv. This heap buffer overflow occurs during the decompression of attacker-controlled compressed data within `.solv` files due to insufficient input validation. An attacker can provide a specially crafted `.solv` file, which, when processed by a vulnerable application, can lead to out-of-bounds memory access. This could result in information disclosure, alteration of program execution, or a denial of service.

CVE-2026-42009 High · 7.5 CWE-475 May 18, 2026

Gnutls: gnutls: denial of service via dtls packet reordering vulnerability

A flaw was found in gnutls. A remote attacker could exploit an issue in the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) packet reordering logic. The comparator function, responsible for ordering DTLS packets by sequence numbers, did not correctly handle packets with duplicate sequence numbers. This could lead to unstable packet ordering or undefined behavior, resulting in a denial of service.

CVE-2026-42011 High · 7.4 CWE-295 May 7, 2026

Gnutls: gnutls: security bypass due to incorrect name constraint handling

A flaw was found in gnutls. This vulnerability occurs because permitted name constraints were incorrectly ignored when previous Certificate Authorities (CAs) only had excluded name constraints. A remote attacker could exploit this to bypass critical name constraint checks during certificate validation. This bypass could lead to the acceptance of invalid certificates, potentially enabling spoofing or man-in-the-middle attacks against affected systems.
