Odh-dashboard: odh-dashboard: backend port 8080 trusts x-forwarded-access-token without origin validation

Published Jul 23, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.8 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
A flaw was found in odh-dashboard, the web console component of Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI). Due to incorrect network binding, a malicious actor within the cluster can bypass authentication and impersonate any user by providing an arbitrary access token. This allows an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the Kubernetes API, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution, privilege escalation, or information disclosure.
