Medium [CVE-2026-54422] Credential extraction from bootc container deployment via /proc/1/root
CVE-2026-54422Source published Source updated
In OpenStack Ironic Python Agent through 11.5.0, a malicious bootc container, when deployed using ironic-python-agent, may be able to extract the credentials used to download it. During bootc image deployment, the OCI registry pull secret was exposed to tenant-controlled container code running with host PID namespace visibility. A malicious bootc container image could read the operator's registry credentials from the host filesystem via /proc/1/root, leading to credential disclosure. This could allow a project-scoped tenant to extract shared operator registry credentials, potentially affecting multiple nodes and projects. Red Hat OpenStack Platform ships ironic-python-agent as part of its bare metal provisioning infrastructure. Deployments that use the bootc deploy_interface are affected…

- 11.5.0
- Source-reported fixed versions
- No fixed-version detail extracted. This does not mean no fix exists.
- Mitigation guidance
- Operators can disable the bootc deploy_interface on their Ironic conductors by setting 'disable_bootc_deploy = true' in the ironic-python-agent configuration. Additionally, operators should avoid using operator-sourced registry pull secrets (driver_info.image_pull_secret or [deploy] image_server_user/password) with the bootc deploy_interface until the fix is applied. If the bootc deploy_interface must remain enabled, restrict which users can deploy arbitrary container images by limiting access to the baremetal provisioning API.
