OpenChoreo is a complete, open-source developer platform for Kubernetes. Prior to 1.0.3, 1.1.3, and 1.2.0-rc.2, the POST /api/v1alpha1/autobuild endpoint in internal/openchoreo-api/api/handlers/webhook_handler.go selected a webhook provider from caller-controlled X-Event-Key, accepted Bitbucket requests without HMAC-SHA256 in X-Hub-Signature or a configured bitbucket-secret, and allowed unauthenticated build triggers for components matched by repository URL and branch, including cross-provider triggers using attacker-supplied commit SHAs. This issue is fixed in versions 1.0.3, 1.1.3, and 1.2.0-rc.2.
CVE-2026-73840
This medium-severity CVE scores 5.3 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 85% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
