CVE-2026-75885
CriticalCVSS 9.3Summary
A flaw was found in the OpenShift console allowing unauthenticated access to the /api/devfile/ and /api/devfile/samples/ endpoints. A remote attacker can send crafted devfile payloads, leading to Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) and, by sending repeated large requests without a specified content length, to unbounded memory growth and Denial of Service (DoS).
Risk Assessment
An attacker can exploit SSRF to probe internal services and reflect partial responses, and cause DoS through memory exhaustion of the console. This may lead to information disclosure and disruption of the OpenShift environment's availability.
Recommendation
Apply available security updates for the OpenShift console that address this flaw. Restrict network access to the /api/devfile/ and /api/devfile/samples/ endpoints and monitor for unusual requests.
Other vulnerabilities in OpenShift console
See all- CVE-2026-50237High
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-2026-50236High
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-2024-7631Medium
A flaw was found in the OpenShift Console, an endpoint for plugins to serve resources in multiple languages: /locales/resources.json. This endpoint's lng and ns parameters are used to construct a filepath in pkg/plugins/handlers unsafely.go#L112. Because of this unsafe filepath construction, an authenticated user can manipulate the path to retrieve any JSON files on the console's pod by using sequences of ../ and valid directory paths.
Original NVD description (English source)
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).
