High CVSS 7.4

CVE-2026-50237

NVD analysis in progress

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.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network, with an ordinary user account and with no action from the victim.
Impact
An attacker can read some data, alter some data and degrade the service. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
Weakness
The server issues a request to an attacker-chosen address, reaching into the internal network (SSRF).
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.

What to doFold into the next patch cycle.
