Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 28 Aug 2026
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 13 Nov 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

Red Hat has released OpenShift Builds version 1.9.1 which fixes this vulnerability. It is recommended that all users running version 1.9.0 upgrade to 1.9.1 to mitigate the issue. No additional actions are specified beyond applying this update.

Description

A security vulnerability identified as CVE-2026-56854 affects Red Hat OpenShift Builds, a Platform as a Service (PaaS) solution for cloud application deployment. The vulnerability allows bypassing of security controls related to NetworkPolicy blocking of kube-apiserver webhook traffic due to hostNetwork limitations. Red Hat has released version 1.9.1 of OpenShift Builds to address this issue and recommends upgrading from version 1.9.0.

Impact

The vulnerability allows bypassing security controls related to webhook traffic in OpenShift Builds, potentially undermining the security posture of the platform. This could lead to unauthorized access or manipulation of build processes if exploited. However, there are no known exploits in the wild at this time.

Summary

CVE-2026-56854 is a security vulnerability in Red Hat OpenShift Builds that involves the NetworkPolicy blocking kube-apiserver webhook traffic because of hostNetwork limitations. This flaw can enable an attacker to circumvent security mechanisms within the OpenShift Builds environment. Red Hat issued a security advisory (RHSA-2026:69925) and released OpenShift Builds version 1.9.1 as a fix, advising users of version 1.9.0 to upgrade. The advisory includes updated container images and references to the fixed components.
