CVE-2026-114217: Konflux CI cleartext storage of GitHub access tokens

CVE-2026-114217 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.6 · Published 2026-10-31

Konflux CI is a cloud-native continuous integration system used to build, test, and release software artifacts securely. The system stores GitHub access tokens in plaintext on CI runner machines without cleaning them up, allowing attackers who gain local access to the runner to steal these credentials. With stolen tokens, an attacker could modify source code or artifacts in software repositories, potentially compromising the entire software supply chain.

Technical details

CI automation scripts in Konflux CI leave sensitive GitHub authentication tokens in plaintext storage on runner systems without proper cleanup after execution. The vulnerability requires local access to the CI runner environment; an attacker with code execution on the runner can read persistent credentials across workflow steps to gain unauthorized repository access. This represents a cleartext storage of sensitive information (CWE-312) flaw with high impact on supply chain security.
