Mitigation checklist
- Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces is not affected because it does not ship or rely on Plesk or expose the Plesk XML API. The vulnerable functionality resides within the Plesk-specific integration of the go-acme/lego library, which is not used by the product. Authentication is also required to exploit the vulnerability. No product changes are required.
