CVE-2026-48681 Details
Description
OpenStack Ironic through before 35.0.2 allows file overwrite via directory traversal during deployment with a crafted ISO image.
A path traversal vulnerability has been identified in OpenStack Ironic versions prior to 35.0.2. This issue allows a maliciously crafted ISO image to be deployed via Redfish virtual media, iRMC, or Anaconda interfaces, leading to arbitrary file overwrites on the Ironic conductor's filesystem. The vulnerability arises because Ironic's ISO handling code does not properly validate paths, allowing traversal sequences to escape the intended directory and overwrite files within the conductor user's permissions.
Users can upgrade to OpenStack Ironic versions 35.0.2 or later. Patches are also available for the 2026.1, 2025.2, and 34.0 branches.
