Not enough EPSS history yet.
In Eclipse Ankaios versions 0.1.0 through 1.0.2, the agent creates workload files and Control Interface named pipes (FIFOs) under a predictable path derived from the agent name and a hash of the workload's runtime configuration. If a directory or FIFO already exists at that path when the agent (re)starts, the agent reuses it based only on an existence and/or file-type check, without validating its owner or permissions. A local, unprivileged user with write access to the same base directory (by default under `$TMPDIR/ankaios`, e.g. shared `/tmp`) can pre-create this path hierarchy, including the two Control Interface FIFOs, before the agent starts. The agent then treats the attacker-owned FIFOs as the legitimate Control Interface for the targeted workload. The attacker can complete the Control Interface handshake and issue requests using that workload's configured `controlInterfaceAccess` permissions, allowing impersonation of the workload and, depending on its configured permissions, unauthorized reading and/or modification of the cluster's desired state.

CVE-2026-180696.0 MED—
———IBM i 7.6, 7.5, 7.4, and 7.3 could allow a local attacker to obtain ownership of arbitrary file system objects due to a time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition.15hCVE-2026-537086.6 MED—
———ContextForge is an AI gateway, registry, and proxy that provides centralized discovery, guardrails, and management for MCP, A2A, and REST or gRPC APIs. Prior to 1.0.3, the /admin/gateways/test call site in mcpgateway/admin.py calls validate_gateway_test_url() in mcpgateway/common/validators.py to resolve and reject private, loopback, link-local, and cloud-metadata addresses, but ResilientHttpClient later resolves the original hostname again without binding the validated address. When MCPGATEWAY_ADMIN_API_ENABLED is enabled, an attacker with a database-backed role containing explicit gateways.read permission can use DNS rebinding to return a public address during validation and a private or metadata address during connection, bypassing ssrf_blocked_networks and ssrf_dns_fail_closed because those controls apply only to the validation-time result. The endpoint's allow_admin_bypass=False setting means a bootstrap-only virtual platform-admin identity without a database role is not sufficient. Successful exploitation can reach internal services and cloud metadata, expose cloud credentials, access internal APIs, or probe internal network ports. This issue is fixed in version 1.0.3.19hCVE-2026-824307.8 HIG—
———Description
When launching a Docker or OCI worker, the setuid-root `worker-launcher` first changes ownership of the
entire worker directory to the untrusted topology user, and only afterwards reads and acts on the command
file that the supervisor wrote into that same directory. The file is opened without `O_NOFOLLOW` and without
re-verifying its owner, so between the ownership change and the read the tenant can replace its contents.
For the Docker path the parsed command is executed with real uid 0, and the command sanitiser is not a
privilege boundary: it admits `-v` with an arbitrary source, `--device`, `--cap-add`, `--security-opt`,
`--user` and `--net`, and copies positional arguments through verbatim. A rewritten file therefore yields an
attacker-authored, root-equivalent container invocation with the host filesystem available.
For the OCI path the same rewrite window applies, and mount validation is structural only, with no
source or destination allow-list, so arbitrary host paths can be bind-mounted read-write into the
container. The `username` field of the command file is likewise attacker-settable and is checked only
against non-root and minimum-uid rules, permitting execution as another tenant's uid.
Mitigation
Upgrade to 3.1.0, where the command file is validated before the ownership change and re-verified on open,
and where mount sources and destinations are constrained by configuration.
Users who cannot upgrade immediately should disable Docker and OCI worker isolation, or restrict topology
submission on affected supervisors to trusted principals. Note that the launcher must be rebuilt and
reinstalled after upgrading.

———Description
The setuid-root `worker-launcher` binary adjusts ownership and permissions of worker directories by walking
the tree with FTS and calling `lchown` and `chmod` on each entry's full pathname while running with an
effective uid of 0. Both syscalls re-resolve the path at the time of the call, after FTS has classified the
entry, and the trees being walked are owned and writable by the untrusted topology user.
A tenant running code on a supervisor node could therefore replace an intermediate directory component with
a symbolic link between classification and the privileged operation, redirecting the root-owned `lchown` or
`chmod` at an arbitrary file on the host. The operation is repeatable at will, since crashing a worker
forces a relaunch and blob updates re-run the walk, so a failed attempt costs the attacker nothing.
This crosses the boundary that `supervisor.run.worker.as.user` and container isolation are intended to
enforce. It is the same defect class as the Hadoop container-executor issues from which this code derives.
Mitigation
Upgrade to 3.1.0, where the privileged walk operates on file descriptors it has already stat'd rather than
on pathnames re-resolved at call time.
Users who cannot upgrade immediately should not run untrusted topology code on supervisors configured with
`supervisor.run.worker.as.user`, since the launcher is the boundary being crossed. Note that the launcher
must be rebuilt and reinstalled after upgrading; replacing the Java artifacts alone is not sufficient.
