CVE-2026-71474

HIGH 7.1

Published 2026-08-11 · Last modified 2026-09-02

A flaw was found in insights-client. When the application receives a non-200 response, it logs the request headers, which can include the cloud.openshift.com pull-secret token. A local user with access to pod logs on the hub could read this long-lived credential. This information disclosure could grant unauthorized access to Red Hat cloud services.
