What is CVE-2025-9572?

An authorization flaw in Foreman's GraphQL API presents a significant concern for users, enabling low-privileged users to gain access to sensitive metadata beyond their assigned permissions. Unlike the REST API, which enforces proper access controls, the GraphQL endpoint lacks sufficient filtering measures. This oversight allows unauthorized information retrieval, potentially leading to data leakage and security compliance issues.

Affected Version(s)

Foreman 1.22.0 < 3.16.2

Red Hat Satellite 6.15 for RHEL 8 0:3.9.1.14-1.el8sat

Red Hat Satellite 6.15 for RHEL 8 0:6.15.5.7-1.el8sat
