Mitigation checklist
- Audit and revoke any Controller service keys that were not provisioned by the installer; this is the most important immediate action and applies to environments upgraded from 2.5/2.6 as well. Where the integration is not required, set FEATURE_OIDC_WORKLOAD_IDENTITY_ENABLED=false to disable the workload-identity endpoint. Rotate any downstream credentials (e.g. in HashiCorp Vault) that could have been retrieved via a forged workload identity.
