CVE-2026-44918 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade ironic to version 38.0.0 or higher.
Overview
ironic is an OpenStack Bare Metal Provisioning
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficient Granularity of Access Control in the process of reparenting Volume Connectors and Volume Targets to nodes in a different project, crossing project authorization boundaries. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to iSCSI secrets and manipulate node operations by leveraging knowledge of the UUID of a target node in another project and possessing the 'manager' role. This is only exploitable if the attacker has been explicitly granted the 'manager' role and knows the UUID of the target node in the other project.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by auditing node configuration to ensure the expected number of volume targets and volume connectors are present, and by using the provided ironic-status upgrade check to identify misconfigured nodes.
