CVE-2026-71365

7.7 · HIGH
Published Aug 18, 2026 CWE-918 EPSS 0.45% (37th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-71365 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 18, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.7 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.7, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability was found in AWX's webhook status callback mechanism. When processing GitHub pull request webhooks, AWX extracts the status callback URL (pull_request.statuses_url) from the incoming webhook payload without validating the target host against the expected Git provider. This URL is persisted in job extra variables and later used to send authenticated status updates. A user with admin role on a webhook-enabled job template can read the template's webhook signing key, forge a signed GitHub webhook payload with an arbitrary statuses_url, and cause AWX to POST status updates to an attacker-controlled or internal URL. The status update request includes the configured Git Personal Access Token (PAT) in the Authorization header, resulting in credential leakage to the attacker-specified endpoint.

Remediation
