CVE-2026-13717
Description
A flaw was found in the Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI) MaaS Gateway. Improper configuration of the Gateway in a model-serving context allows a standard user with low privileges to intercept, read, log, and alter all MaaS model traffic. This includes sensitive information such as access keys, input prompts, and outputs, leading to significant information disclosure and data tampering.
Statement
This Important flaw in the Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI) MaaS Gateway stems from an insecure default configuration, allowing a standard user with low privileges to intercept, read, log, and alter all model-serving traffic. This includes sensitive data such as access keys, input prompts, and outputs, leading to significant information disclosure and data tampering within any namespace authorized to use the MaaS Gateway.
Mitigation
You can restrict Gateway access to some namespaces only. However, it does not prevent someone from an authorized namespace to hijack the traffic of another. Fully locking down access to the MaaS Gateway is a solution, however it defeats the self-service approach of the component.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
