Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2026-08-06 17:25 - Updated: 2026-08-16 10:36Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: General availability of the satellite/iop-advisor-frontend-rhel9 container image
Severity
Important
Notes
Topic: A new satellite/iop-advisor-frontend-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.

A flaw was found in brace-expansion. An attacker can exploit a vulnerability in the `expand()` function by providing a specially crafted string. This string, containing consecutive non-expanding brace groups, can trigger exponential-time complexity, leading to significant CPU consumption and event-loop blocking. This can result in a Denial of Service (DoS) for the affected system.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
