CVE-2026-71463

Automation-controller: automation-controller-container: automation-controller: notification template jinja whitelist bypass via conditional gating leaks tracebacks

Published Sep 23, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 2.7 Low EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Notification template Jinja AST whitelist only inspects
static Getattr nodes. Dynamic subscripts (job['job'+'_env'])
and {% if job.id > 100 %} conditional gating bypass both
the AST check and the test-render (stub has small job.id).
At runtime, the gated branch executes and exceptions write
full tracebacks into notification body, which is POSTed
to attacker-controlled webhook URL. Leaks install paths,
Python version, source line numbers.

Remediation

Vendor Workaround

Restrict notification template creation and editing privileges to trusted administrators only, since exploitation requires notification template admin privileges. Review existing notification templates for unexpected dynamic subscript expressions or conditional gating constructs, and limit outbound connectivity from automation controller nodes to approved webhook destinations so that notification content cannot be delivered to attacker-controlled endpoints.
