What is CVE-2025-9909?
A vulnerability exists in the route creation component of the Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform Gateway. This flaw allows attackers to exploit misleading routes initiated by a double-slash (//) prefix in the gateway_path. A compromised or socially engineered administrator can effectively create a honey-pot route designed to intercept and exfiltrate user credentials. This manipulation opens the door for attackers to maintain persistent access or set up a backdoor, even after original permissions have been revoked, posing a significant risk to sensitive user data and system integrity.
