Summary

The Konflux-ci project's GitHub workflow automation for issue management is affected. An attacker who can trigger automated workflow runs could craft issue titles that inject malicious filter commands, potentially exposing sensitive data such as API credentials, deployment keys, and internal notes in workflow logs.

Summarized by anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5. Verify details against the original sources.

Read the original description

A flaw was found in konflux-ci. An attacker with permission to trigger automated workflow runs can cause an information disclosure by providing crafted issue titles to workflow scripts. The affected script incorporates user-provided titles directly into data queries without adequate sanitization, allowing the attacker to inject malicious filter commands. As a result, sensitive information such as API credentials, deployment keys, and internal notes returned from repository queries may be exposed in workflow logs.

FAQ

Questions about CVE-2026-116086

What does this mean?

A jq filter in the GitHub workflow for issue management is injectable through user-supplied issue parameters. Sensitive data returned from repository queries, such as API credentials, deployment keys, and internal notes, may then appear in workflow logs.Source: access.redhat.com

Am I affected, and how do I check?

The listed ranges are konflux-ci 0.2.2 and 0.2.3-rc.0. The flaw applies to Konflux CI environments that automate issue management via dispatch events accepting user-supplied issue parameters, so the version in use and whether such workflows exist are the things to compare against these ranges.Source: access.redhat.com

What should I do about it?

The checked facts do not name a fixed version, so no upgrade target can be given from these sources. Check the konflux-ci project's advisory for a release that addresses this issue.Source: access.redhat.com

Is it being exploited?

It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data

What if there's no patch?

The checked facts list no patch and no specific workaround. Limiting dispatch-triggered issue management workflows that accept user-supplied issue parameters is the only mitigation the facts imply.Source: access.redhat.com
