Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 4 Jun 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 29 Oct 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.

What to do

AI-suggested

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.12 users should upgrade to version 4.12.91 when it becomes available in their release channel. The update contains fixes for multiple security issues and bug fixes. Instructions for upgrading clusters are available in the official Red Hat documentation. No additional mitigation actions are specified by Red Hat beyond applying this update.

Description

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.12.91 is a bug fix and security update release addressing multiple vulnerabilities including local privilege escalation, denial of service, and information disclosure issues in components such as libxslt, OpenSSH, nghttp2, sudo, and the Linux kernel. The update is rated with a low security impact by Red Hat Product Security. Users of OpenShift Container Platform 4.12 are advised to upgrade to this release when available.

Impact

The vulnerabilities fixed in this update include potential infinite recursion leading to crashes, information disclosure, denial of service, and local privilege escalation. These issues could allow attackers to disrupt service or escalate privileges on affected systems. However, Red Hat Product Security rates the overall security impact of this update as Low, indicating limited or mitigated risk in typical deployment scenarios.

CWE-606Unchecked Input for Loop Condition (opens in a new tab)
Base weakness
The product does not properly check inputs that are used for loop conditions, potentially leading to a denial of service or other consequences because of excessive looping.
Implementation
Do not use user-controlled data for loop conditions.
Implementation
Perform input validation.

Base weakness
The product accesses or uses a pointer that has not been initialized.

CWE-617Reachable Assertion (opens in a new tab)
Base weakness
The product contains an assert() or similar statement that can be triggered by an attacker, which leads to an application exit or other behavior that is more severe than necessary.
Implementation
If the assertion statement is required (e.g., for security or reliability), change the invoking code to avoid the conditions that trigger the assertion.
Implementation
Consider changing the assertion to some other less "fatal" error. This might not be easy to implement, since other code may be needed to handle the error.
Implementation
Make sensitive open/close operations non-reachable from directly user-controlled data (e.g. open/close resources)
From MITRE CWE, MITRE CAPEC and OWASP (Top 10, OpenCRE).
CWE-272Least Privilege Violation (opens in a new tab)
Base weakness
The elevated privilege level required to perform operations such as chroot() should be dropped immediately after the operation is performed.
Architecture and Design · Operation
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Architecture and Design · Separation of Privilege
Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.
Architecture and Design · Separation of Privilege
Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.

CWE-123Write-what-where Condition (opens in a new tab)
Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: High
Any condition where the attacker has the ability to write an arbitrary value to an arbitrary location, often as the result of a buffer overflow.
Architecture and Design · Language Selection
Use a language that provides appropriate memory abstractions.
Operation
Use OS-level preventative functionality integrated after the fact. Not a complete solution.

Pillar weakness
The product does not maintain or incorrectly maintains control over a resource throughout its lifetime of creation, use, and release.
