High CVSS 8.7
CVE-2026-14891
HashiCorp Nomad and Nomad Enterprise are vulnerable to a sandbox escape in the Docker task driver that may allow a job submitter to bind-mount a host path into a container even when volume bind mounts are disabled, potentially leading to reading and writing files on the host. This vulnerability, CVE-2026-14891, is fixed in Nomad Community Edition 2.0.4 and Nomad Enterprise 2.0.4, 1.11.8, and 1.10.14.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with a privileged account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data and modify or destroy data. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- The program follows a symbolic link without checking its target, so a local attacker can redirect it to a sensitive file.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
