Unauthenticated provider disclosure via unverified bearer tokens
Published Sep 6, 2024 · Updated Nov 20, 2025
Authentication bypass in Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Virtualization before 2.6.6 allows remote attackers to read provider inventory data. The Forklift Controller inventory API accepts any nonempty Bearer token at the /providers endpoint without verifying the token, returning HTTP 200 and requested records. Network access to the exposed inventory route is sufficient; the documented impact is read-only disclosure, with no integrity or availability impact.
