Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: General availability of the satellite/iop-remediations-rhel9 container image
Severity
Important
Notes
Topic: A new satellite/iop-remediations-rhel9 container image is now generally available in the Red Hat container registry.
Details: Red Hat Lightspeed in Satellite analyzes system health and configuration by applying predefined rules to a small set of local data, such as installed packages, running services, and configuration settings. When you install Red Hat Lightspeed in Satellite locally, you can generate Red Hat Lightspeed recommendations without sending system data to Red Hat services.

CVE-2025-69873

A flaw was found in ajv. When the $data option is enabled, the value of the pattern keyword is passed directly to the JavaScript RegExp() constructor without sufficient validation. An attacker able to supply a malicious regular expression pattern can trigger a ReDoS (Regular Expression Denial of Service), causing the application to become unresponsive and resulting in a denial of service.
