REDHAT-BUG-2512369: Medium severity Red Hat Automation Controller vulnerability

Published Aug 6, 2026
·
Updated

A flaw was found in automation-controller. The /api/v2/config/ endpoint returns licenseinfo including Red Hat account number, subscription ID, pool ID, SKU, support level, and instance counts to any authenticated user. The existing superuser/auditor gate only restricts projectbasedir, projectlocalpaths, and customvirtualenvs, but does not cover the licenseinfo block.
