CVE-2026-47256

A flaw was found in the OpenTelemetry Sentry exporter. A remote attacker can exploit a path traversal vulnerability by manipulating the `service.name` attribute. This allows the attacker to craft malicious Sentry API URLs, potentially gaining unauthorized access to sensitive administrative or organization-level endpoints within the configured Sentry organization. Additionally, an attacker could redirect telemetry data, impacting data integrity and confidentiality.

CVE-2026-55701

A flaw was found in the OpenTelemetry Collector Contrib's githubreceiver component. An unauthenticated attacker can bypass authentication mechanisms, including required headers and HMAC validation, when the 'Secret' field is empty. This allows the attacker to submit arbitrary webhook payloads, leading to the injection of fabricated Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) trace data into the observability pipeline. This could compromise the integrity of monitoring and operational insights.

CVE-2026-47256 (GCVE-0-2026-47256)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-09-14 17:28 – Updated: 2026-09-14 18:00

Title

OpenTelemetry: Path traversal in Sentry exporter via attacker-controlled service.name reaches privileged Sentry API endpoints with operator bearer token

Summary

OpenTelemetry, also known as OTel, is a vendor-neutral open source Observability framework for instrumenting, generating, collecting, and exporting telemetry data such as traces, metrics, and logs. Prior to 0.154.0, the Sentry exporter reads the remote OTLP sender-controlled service.name resource attribute in exporter/sentryexporter/sentry_exporter.go through extractProjectSlug and getOrCreateProjectEndpoint, passes the raw project slug to GetOTLPEndpoints and GetProjectKeys in exporter/sentryexporter/sentry_client.go, and interpolates it into a Sentry API URL without applying projectSlugRegexp through validateRoutingConfig at runtime in exporter/sentryexporter/config.go. Special characters can turn the expected path suffix into query data in all deployments or introduce slash and dot segments that traverse paths when the Sentry deployment normalizes them, while the Collector attaches its operator-configured bearer token to the request. A successful request can reach token-authorized administrative, organization, member, or key endpoints within the configured Sentry organization, and an attacker-controlled project slug can redirect subsequently exported telemetry. Sentry token middleware prevents cross-organization access. This issue is fixed in version 0.154.0.

CVE-2026-55701 (GCVE-0-2026-55701)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-09-15 15:05 – Updated: 2026-09-17 14:45

Title

OpenTelemetry githubreceiver silently ignores configured required_headers authentication

Summary

The OpenTelemetry Collector Contrib repository contains components for the OpenTelemetry Collector. Prior to 0.151.0, the githubreceiver validates the receiver/githubreceiver/config.go RequiredHeaders configuration at startup, but receiver/githubreceiver/trace_receiver.go handleReq() does not check those headers on incoming webhook requests. An unauthenticated sender can therefore bypass an operator's required_headers authentication control and submit arbitrary webhook payloads. When the Secret field is empty, github.ValidatePayload also skips HMAC validation, leaving the webhook endpoint without either configured authentication mechanism. Successful exploitation can inject fabricated CI/CD trace data into the observability pipeline. This issue is fixed in version 0.151.0.

Severity
