CVE-2026-4926 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Red Hat security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for RHEL:7.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openshift4/ose-console package and not the openshift4/ose-console package as distributed by RHEL.
Impact:
A bad regular expression is generated any time you have multiple sequential optional groups (curly brace syntax), such as {a}{b}{c}:z. The generated regex grows exponentially with the number of groups, causing denial of service.
Patches:
Fixed in version 8.4.0.
Workarounds:
Limit the number of sequential optional groups in route patterns. Avoid passing user-controlled input as route patterns.
