Description
CVE-2026-126087 is a high-severity vulnerability in AWS Open Job Description (OpenJD) Sessions for Python before version 0.11.0, affecting the Deadline Cloud worker agent before version 0.33.0 on Linux. It involves an untrusted search path in the cross-user process launcher, allowing an authenticated remote user with job submission permissions to execute arbitrary code as the worker agent OS user by manipulating the PATH environment variable. This could lead to unauthorized access to AWS credentials held by the worker agent. AWS has remediated this issue in OpenJD Sessions 0.11.0 and Deadline Cloud worker agent 0.33.0. Service-managed fleets have been patched server-side by AWS, while customer-managed fleets should upgrade to these fixed versions.
