What is CVE-2026-73841?

OpenChoreo, a comprehensive open-source developer platform for Kubernetes, features a significant authorization flaw present from version 1.2.0-rc.1 to 1.2.0. This vulnerability allows users with project-scoped permissions to execute commands and read wirelogs from components belonging to other projects within the same namespace. The issue arises due to the use of the caller-supplied project query parameter for authorizing access, circumventing the proper checks against the actual owner’s project name. This security loophole has been addressed in OpenChoreo version 1.2.0, where strict authorization checks are enforced.

Affected Version(s)

openchoreo >= 1.2.0-rc.1, < 1.2.0
