Vulnerability in openshift/oauth-proxy (CVE-2026-49332)

Summary

Vulnerability in openshift/oauth-proxy (CVE-2026-49332). Confidential information can be exposed externally.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

A flaw was found in openshift/oauth-proxy. The proxy sets authenticated identity headers using only dash-variant keys (X-Forwarded-User) but does not strip underscore-variant keys (X_Forwarded_User) from incoming requests. WSGI and PHP frameworks normalize both variants to the same variable, allowing an authenticated low-privilege user to smuggle a forged identity that may override the legitimate authenticated identity in the upstream application.
