CVE-2026-117574: Red Hat OpenShift AI credential injection across tenant boundaries

CVE-2026-117574 · Severity: critical · CVSS 9.1 · Published 2026-10-28

Red Hat OpenShift AI's model serving gateway fails to verify that users can only access their own tenant's language models, allowing an authenticated attacker to inject another organization's API credentials into requests. An attacker can exploit this to consume another tenant's cloud compute resources, API quotas, and potentially exfiltrate or manipulate that tenant's data through their injected credentials.

Technologies: Red Hat OpenShift AI. Vendors: Red Hat.

Technical details

The ai-gateway-payload-processing component performs credential injection based on a model identifier from the client-supplied request body or header without validating that the authenticated user has authorization to access that model. An authenticated attacker with valid credentials for their own tenant can specify a different tenant's model identifier and receive that tenant's cloud provider API keys in the injected request, bypassing tenant isolation in a multi-tenant deployment. This is an authorization bypass (CWE-639) with network attack vector requiring only valid user authentication.
