Authenticated code execution via delegated-method safemode bypass
Published Oct 1, 2026 · Updated Oct 1, 2026
Remote code execution in Red Hat Satellite's Foreman templating allows remote authenticated users to run commands through crafted templates. Improper handling of delegated methods lets a template add unauthorized functions to the safemode execution allowlist. Exploitation requires an account with low-level template access; the resulting commands execute on the hosting server. No public record for the supplied CVE identifier was located to establish affected versions.
