Unauthenticated file read via path traversal
Published Mar 20, 2026 · Updated Mar 20, 2026
Path traversal in the Feast Feature Server allows remote attackers to read files accessible to the server process via crafted HTTP POST requests. The /read-document endpoint accepts a crafted pathname without confining its resolution to the intended directory, exposing system files, application configurations, or credentials. No authentication or user interaction is required, but Red Hat's final VEX marks every evaluated OpenShift AI component as known not affected because vulnerable code is absent or unreachable.
