CVE-2026-58023
Description
A flaw was found in Apache Thrift c_glib bindings. This out-of-bounds read vulnerability allows an attacker to potentially access sensitive information or cause a denial of service. The vulnerability occurs when the software attempts to read data beyond the allocated memory buffer.
Statement
This Moderate severity out-of-bounds read vulnerability in Apache Thrift c_glib bindings could lead to information disclosure and denial of service. Red Hat products such as OpenShift Container Platform, Red Hat OpenShift Update Service, and Confidential Compute Attestation are affected where they utilize vulnerable versions of Apache Thrift. Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI is not affected as the vulnerable code is not present.
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).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Read Memory
An attacker could get secret values such as cryptographic keys, PII, memory addresses, or other information that could be used in additional attacks.
Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Bypass Protection Mechanism
Out-of-bounds memory could contain memory addresses or other information that can be used to bypass ASLR and other protection mechanisms in order to improve the reliability of exploiting a separate weakness for code execution.
Availability
Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart
An attacker could cause a segmentation fault or crash by causing memory to be read outside of the bounds of the buffer. This is especially likely when the code reads a variable amount of data and assumes that a sentinel exists to stop the read operation, such as a NUL in a string.
Other
Technical Impact: Varies by Context
The read operation could produce other undefined or unexpected results.
