✅ Remediation

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. For details on how to apply this update, refer to: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_ansible_automation_platform/2.7#Upgrade Workaround: The following practices would help for avoiding exposure and mitigate this flaw: - Restrict network access to the non-mTLS EDA event stream route (/eda-event-streams/) at the firewall or load balancer level, allowing only trusted internal sources. - If mTLS-protected event streams are in use, ensure that only the /mtls/eda-event-streams/ route is accessible from untrusted networks. - Monitor EDA event stream activity for unexpected events_received counter increases that may indicate unauthorized event injection. - Review Envoy proxy logs for requests to the non-mTLS event stream route from unexpected source IPs. Workaround: There is no complete mitigation for this vulnerability. The following measures can reduce risk: 1. If FilesystemExport was never configured on your deployment, you are not affected by this issue. 2. If FilesystemExporters exist in the database, audit them for path traversal sequences ("../"). Existing malicious entries must be cleaned up manually, as the validation functions documented to raise ValidationError do not actually do so in all code paths. 3. Restrict admin-level access to the Pulp API to only trusted operators. Review and audit which accounts have administrator privileges. 4. Ensure SELinux is in enforcing mode on Satellite/Pulp servers to limit the directories the Pulp service user can write to. 5. Monitor filesystem changes outside of expected Pulp directories for signs of exploitation. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability. Workaround: A flaw was found in the Go standard library crypto/x509 package. When verifying a TLS certificate hostname, VerifyHostname processed each DNS Subject Alternative Name (SAN) entry in a loop and repeatedly split the candidate hostname on "." characters. For certificates with a very large DNS SAN list, CPU use could grow quadratically with the number of SAN entries and hostname labels. Because hostname verification runs before the certificate chain is built, this overhead can occur even when the certificate is not trusted. Red Hat rates this issue as Important. It affects Red Hat products that include the Go standard library crypto/x509 code from an affected Go toolchain version (before Go 1.25.11, or from Go 1.26.0 through Go 1.26.3). Applications and container images built with a fixed Go release (1.25.11 or later, or 1.26.4 or later) are not affected. Community distributions such as Fedora are also affected. Upstream fix: Go 1.25.11 and Go 1.26.4 (GO-2026-5037). Workaround: Upgrade to a fixed golang.org/x/net release that includes the idna correction, via updated golang or dependent package rebuilds. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability. Workaround: Restrict network access to the vLLM API endpoint to only trusted clients and internal networks. Implement firewall rules or network policies to limit inbound connections to the vLLM service, thereby reducing the attack surface. This operational control helps prevent unauthorized external access to the vulnerable API.
