The cert-manager Operator for Red Hat OpenShift builds on top of Kubernetes, introducing certificate authorities and certificates as first-class resource types in the Kubernetes API. This makes it possible to provide certificates-as-a-service to developers working within your Kubernetes cluster.

Red Hat Discovery, also known as Discovery, is an inspection and reporting tool that finds, identifies, and reports environment data, or facts, such as the number of physical and virtual systems on a network, their operating systems, and relevant configuration data stored within them. Discovery also identifies and reports more detailed facts for some versions of key Red Hat packages and products that it finds in the network.

This update for gzip fixes the following issue - CVE-2026-41991: insecure temporary file handling in the gzexe utility when the mktemp utility is not available in the user's PATH (bsc#1269622).

GNU gzip contains a vulnerability in the gzexe utility related to insecure temporary file handling. When the mktemp utility is not available in the user’s PATH, gzexe falls back to constructing a temporary file path based solely on the process ID (PID). This predictable filename is created without exclusive access or existence checks. A local attacker can pre‑create the predicted temporary file path as a symbolic link pointing to an arbitrary file writable by the victim. When gzexe runs, it follows the symlink and overwrites the target file, resulting in a time‑of‑check to time‑of‑use (TOCTOU) condition that allows arbitrary file overwrite. This issue has been fixed in the commit 4e6f8b24ab823146ab8776f0b7fe486ab34d4269
