CVE-2026-5483, published on 2026-04-10, is a vulnerability in the odh-dashboard component of Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI). The flaw enables the disclosure of Kubernetes Service Account tokens through a NodeJS endpoint, which could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to Kubernetes resources. It has been classified under CWE-201 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor) with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.5 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H).

An attacker with low privileges (PR:L) can exploit this vulnerability over the network (AV:N), though it requires high attack complexity (AC:H) and no user interaction (UI:N). Successful exploitation changes scope (S:C) and results in high impacts to confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:H/I:H/A:H), permitting the use of disclosed service account tokens to access Kubernetes resources without authorization.

Red Hat has released patches addressing this issue in security advisories RHSA-2026:7397, RHSA-2026:7398, RHSA-2026:7403, and RHSA-2026:7404, with additional details available on the CVE page at https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-5483. Security practitioners should review these errata for mitigation and update instructions.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Directly enforces policy-based information flow rules that block transmission of sensitive data to unauthorized actors.

Enforces authorizations on logical access so that sensitive data is not released to unauthorized recipients.

Requires validation of outbound information to ensure sensitive content is not disclosed in responses or messages.
