Recent Red Hat Satellite Maintenance Security Vulnerabilities
Auth Bypass in Foreman's Taxonomy Controller Exposing CrossTenant Data
CVE-2026-5138
4.3 - Medium
- July 01, 2026
A flaw was found in Foreman. An authenticated user with host-edit permissions could exploit a cross-tenant information disclosure vulnerability. This flaw occurs because the taxonomy_scope controller method does not properly validate organization and location IDs from nested request parameters, bypassing existing authorization checks. This allows the user to leak sensitive infrastructure metadata, including subnet topology, IP ranges, gateways, DNS servers, and VLAN IDs, from organizations and locations they are not authorized to access.
Insecure Direct Object Reference / IDOR
Foreman Host Retarget Bypass via Broken Access Control
CVE-2026-5135
6.5 - Medium
- July 01, 2026
A flaw was found in Foreman. This broken access control vulnerability allows an authenticated user with host-edit permissions to retarget an existing lookup value override to a different host. This is achieved by modifying the match field through nested host attributes, effectively bypassing authorisation checks. The consequence is the potential for unauthorised modification of managed host configurations across different organisational and location boundaries.
Insecure Direct Object Reference / IDOR
Foreman SSH Key Leak via View_Keypairs Permission
CVE-2026-5142
6.5 - Medium
- July 01, 2026
A flaw was found in foreman. Authenticated users with 'view_keypairs' permission can bypass taxonomy scoping, allowing them to download private SSH (Secure Shell) keys from other organizations by directly querying key pair IDs. This vulnerability leads to cross-tenant data exposure in multi-tenant deployments, potentially compromising sensitive information.
Insecure Direct Object Reference / IDOR
Foreman Usergroup Role Escalation via Improper Permission Validation
CVE-2026-5136
8.8 - High
- July 01, 2026
A flaw was found in Foreman. The Usergroup model in Foreman does not properly validate role assignments against the calling user's permissions. This allows an authenticated user with usergroup management permissions to attach arbitrary roles, including administrative roles, to a user group and then add themselves as a member. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability leads to full privilege escalation, granting the attacker administrator-level access.
Incorrect Privilege Assignment
PyJWT <=2.12: HMAC verifier may use issuer JWK as secret key
CVE-2026-48526
7.4 - High
- May 28, 2026
PyJWT is a JSON Web Token implementation in Python. Prior to 2.13.0, when the verifier is decoding JSON Web Tokens, while supporting both asymmetric and HMAC algorithms, the library does not validate use of JSON Web Keys in HMAC algorithm, allowing attacker to use the issuer public key as the secret key for HMAC algorithm. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.13.0.

Pillow 10.3.012.1.1 GZIP decompress bomb in FITS decoder (CVE202640192)
CVE-2026-40192
7.5 - High
- April 15, 2026
Pillow is a Python imaging library. Versions 10.3.0 through 12.1.1 did not limit the amount of GZIP-compressed data read when decoding a FITS image, making them vulnerable to decompression bomb attacks. A specially crafted FITS file could cause unbounded memory consumption, leading to denial of service (OOM crash or severe performance degradation). If users are unable to immediately upgrade, they should only open specific image formats, excluding FITS, as a workaround.
Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
Go crypto/x509 Intermediates DoS (<=1.26.2)
CVE-2026-32280
7.5 - High
- April 08, 2026
During chain building, the amount of work that is done is not correctly limited when a large number of intermediate certificates are passed in VerifyOptions.Intermediates, which can lead to a denial of service. This affects both direct users of crypto/x509 and users of crypto/tls.
Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
Go crypto/tls TLS 1.3 KeyUpdate deadlock DoS (1.25.9 & <1.26.2)
CVE-2026-32283
7.5 - High
- April 08, 2026
If one side of the TLS connection sends multiple key update messages post-handshake in a single record, the connection can deadlock, causing uncontrolled consumption of resources. This can lead to a denial of service. This only affects TLS 1.3.
Multiple Locks of a Critical Resource
Go 1.26.x crypto/x509 DNS Constraint Case Sensitivity
CVE-2026-33810
8.8 - High
- April 08, 2026
When verifying a certificate chain containing excluded DNS constraints, these constraints are not correctly applied to wildcard DNS SANs which use a different case than the constraint. This only affects validation of otherwise trusted certificate chains, issued by a root CA in the VerifyOptions.Roots CertPool, or in the system certificate pool.
Improper Validation of Unsafe Equivalence in Input
Foreman WS Proxy Command Injection via Unsanitized Hostname
CVE-2026-1961
8 - High
- March 26, 2026
A flaw was found in Foreman. A remote attacker could exploit a command injection vulnerability in Foreman's WebSocket proxy implementation. This vulnerability arises from the system's use of unsanitized hostname values from compute resource providers when constructing shell commands. By operating a malicious compute resource server, an attacker could achieve remote code execution on the Foreman server when a user accesses VM VNC console functionality. This could lead to the compromise of sensitive credentials and the entire managed infrastructure.
Shell injection
gRPC-Go Auth Bypass (1.79.2) via noncanonical :path
CVE-2026-33186
9.1 - Critical
- March 20, 2026
gRPC-Go is the Go language implementation of gRPC. Versions prior to 1.79.3 have an authorization bypass resulting from improper input validation of the HTTP/2 `:path` pseudo-header. The gRPC-Go server was too lenient in its routing logic, accepting requests where the `:path` omitted the mandatory leading slash (e.g., `Service/Method` instead of `/Service/Method`). While the server successfully routed these requests to the correct handler, authorization interceptors (including the official `grpc/authz` package) evaluated the raw, non-canonical path string. Consequently, "deny" rules defined using canonical paths (starting with `/`) failed to match the incoming request, allowing it to bypass the policy if a fallback "allow" rule was present. This affects gRPC-Go servers that use path-based authorization interceptors, such as the official RBAC implementation in `google.golang.org/grpc/authz` or custom interceptors relying on `info.FullMethod` or `grpc.Method(ctx)`; AND that have a security policy contains specific "deny" rules for canonical paths but allows other requests by default (a fallback "allow" rule). The vulnerability is exploitable by an attacker who can send raw HTTP/2 frames with malformed `:path` headers directly to the gRPC server. The fix in version 1.79.3 ensures that any request with a `:path` that does not start with a leading slash is immediately rejected with a `codes.Unimplemented` error, preventing it from reaching authorization interceptors or handlers with a non-canonical path string. While upgrading is the most secure and recommended path, users can mitigate the vulnerability using one of the following methods: Use a validating interceptor (recommended mitigation); infrastructure-level normalization; and/or policy hardening.
AuthZ
pyOpenSSL CVE-2026-27459: Buffer Overflow via cookie callback (22.0.0-26.0.0)
CVE-2026-27459
8.1 - High
- March 17, 2026
pyOpenSSL is a Python wrapper around the OpenSSL library. Starting in version 22.0.0 and prior to version 26.0.0, if a user provided callback to `set_cookie_generate_callback` returned a cookie value greater than 256 bytes, pyOpenSSL would overflow an OpenSSL provided buffer. Starting in version 26.0.0, cookie values that are too long are now rejected.
Classic Buffer Overflow
SQLi via sort_by in Katello plugin (RedHat Satellite)
CVE-2026-4324
5.4 - Medium
- March 17, 2026
A flaw was found in the Katello plugin for Red Hat Satellite. This vulnerability, caused by improper sanitization of user-provided input, allows a remote attacker to inject arbitrary SQL commands into the sort_by parameter of the /api/hosts/bootc_images API endpoint. This can lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) by triggering database errors, and potentially enable Boolean-based Blind SQL injection, which could allow an attacker to extract sensitive information from the database.
SQL Injection
Go net/url Host Validation Flaw in Parse (v<1.25.8, <1.26.1)
CVE-2026-25679
7.5 - High
- March 06, 2026

Improper Validation of Syntactic Correctness of Input
Python-Markdown 3.8 Unhandled AssertErr triggers DoS via malformed HTMl-like seq
CVE-2025-69534
8.2 - High
- March 05, 2026
Python-Markdown version 3.8 contain a vulnerability where malformed HTML-like sequences can cause html.parser.HTMLParser to raise an unhandled AssertionError during Markdown parsing. Because Python-Markdown does not catch this exception, any application that processes attacker-controlled Markdown may crash. This enables remote, unauthenticated Denial of Service in web applications, documentation systems, CI/CD pipelines, and any service that renders untrusted Markdown. The issue was acknowledged by the vendor and fixed in version 3.8.1. This issue causes a remote Denial of Service in any application parsing untrusted Markdown, and can lead to Information Disclosure through uncaught exceptions.
Resource Exhaustion
RCE via Malicious Username in RubyIPMI (Red Hat Satellite BMC)
CVE-2026-0980
8.3 - High
- February 27, 2026
A flaw was found in rubyipmi, a gem used in the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) component of Red Hat Satellite. An authenticated attacker with host creation or update permissions could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious username for the BMC interface. This could lead to remote code execution (RCE) on the system.
Shell injection
c3p0 0.12.0- Deserialization RCE via userOverridesAsString
CVE-2026-27830
8 - High
- February 26, 2026
c3p0, a JDBC Connection pooling library, is vulnerable to attack via maliciously crafted Java-serialized objects and `javax.naming.Reference` instances. Several c3p0 `ConnectionPoolDataSource` implementations have a property called `userOverridesAsString` which conceptually represents a `Map<String,Map<String,String>>`. Prior to v0.12.0, that property was maintained as a hex-encoded serialized object. Any attacker able to reset this property, on an existing `ConnectionPoolDataSource` or via maliciously crafted serialized objects or `javax.naming.Reference` instances could be tailored execute unexpected code on the application's `CLASSPATH`. The danger of this vulnerability was strongly magnified by vulnerabilities in c3p0's main dependency, mchange-commons-java. This library includes code that mirrors early implementations of JNDI functionality, including ungated support for remote `factoryClassLocation` values. Attackers could set c3p0's `userOverridesAsString` hex-encoded serialized objects that include objects "indirectly serialized" via JNDI references. Deserialization of those objects and dereferencing of the embedded `javax.naming.Reference` objects could provoke download and execution of malicious code from a remote `factoryClassLocation`. Although hazard presented by c3p0's vulnerabilites are exarcerbated by vulnerabilities in mchange-commons-java, use of Java-serialized-object hex as the format for a writable Java-Bean property, of objects that may be exposed across JNDI interfaces, represents a serious independent fragility. The `userOverridesAsString` property of c3p0 `ConnectionPoolDataSource` classes has been reimplemented to use a safe CSV-based format, rather than rely upon potentially dangerous Java object deserialization. c3p0-0.12.0+ and above depend upon mchange-commons-java 0.4.0+, which gates support for remote `factoryClassLocation` values by configuration parameters that default to restrictive values. c3p0 additionally enforces the new mchange-commons-java `com.mchange.v2.naming.nameGuardClassName` to prevent injection of unexpected, potentially remote JNDI names. There is no supported workaround for versions of c3p0 prior to 0.12.0.
Marshaling, Unmarshaling
mchange-commons-java RCE via JNDI before 0.4.0
CVE-2026-27727
8.3 - High
- February 25, 2026
mchange-commons-java, a library that provides Java utilities, includes code that mirrors early implementations of JNDI functionality, including support for remote `factoryClassLocation` values, by which code can be downloaded and invoked within a running application. If an attacker can provoke an application to read a maliciously crafted `jaxax.naming.Reference` or serialized object, they can provoke the download and execution of malicious code. Implementations of this functionality within the JDK were disabled by default behind a System property that defaults to `false`, `com.sun.jndi.ldap.object.trustURLCodebase`. However, since mchange-commons-java includes an independent implementation of JNDI derefencing, libraries (such as c3p0) that resolve references via that implementation could be provoked to download and execute malicious code even after the JDK was hardened. Mirroring the JDK patch, mchange-commons-java's JNDI functionality is gated by configuration parameters that default to restrictive values starting in version 0.4.0. No known workarounds are available. Versions prior to 0.4.0 should be avoided on application CLASSPATHs.
Injection
Pillow 10.312.1.1: OOB Write PSD Image Load (Fixed 12.1.1)

SQL Injection
Red Hat Foreman_kubevirt SSL Verification Flaw (MITM Risk)
CVE-2026-1531
8.1 - High
- February 02, 2026
A flaw was found in foreman_kubevirt. When configuring the connection to OpenShift, the system disables SSL verification if a Certificate Authority (CA) certificate is not explicitly set. This insecure default allows a remote attacker, capable of intercepting network traffic between Satellite and OpenShift, to perform a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack. Such an attack could lead to the disclosure or alteration of sensitive information.
Improper Certificate Validation
MITM via Disabled Cert Validation in fog-kubevirt
CVE-2026-1530
8.1 - High
- February 02, 2026
A flaw was found in fog-kubevirt. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack due to disabled certificate validation. This enables the attacker to intercept and potentially alter sensitive communications between Satellite and OpenShift, resulting in information disclosure and data integrity compromise.
Improper Certificate Validation
urllib3 v1.22v2.6.3 Redirect Stream Decompress Bomb (preload_content=False)
CVE-2026-21441
7.5 - High
- January 07, 2026
urllib3 is an HTTP client library for Python. urllib3's streaming API is designed for the efficient handling of large HTTP responses by reading the content in chunks, rather than loading the entire response body into memory at once. urllib3 can perform decoding or decompression based on the HTTP `Content-Encoding` header (e.g., `gzip`, `deflate`, `br`, or `zstd`). When using the streaming API, the library decompresses only the necessary bytes, enabling partial content consumption. Starting in version 1.22 and prior to version 2.6.3, for HTTP redirect responses, the library would read the entire response body to drain the connection and decompress the content unnecessarily. This decompression occurred even before any read methods were called, and configured read limits did not restrict the amount of decompressed data. As a result, there was no safeguard against decompression bombs. A malicious server could exploit this to trigger excessive resource consumption on the client. Applications and libraries are affected when they stream content from untrusted sources by setting `preload_content=False` when they do not disable redirects. Users should upgrade to at least urllib3 v2.6.3, in which the library does not decode content of redirect responses when `preload_content=False`. If upgrading is not immediately possible, disable redirects by setting `redirect=False` for requests to untrusted source.
Data Amplification
