What is CVE-2026-18369?

CVE-2026-18369 is a medium-severity server-side request forgery vulnerability in Red Hat Certificate System 10, published on 30 Jul 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

A flaw was found in Dogtag PKI's ACME responder where the HTTP-01 challenge validator accepts IP address literals as dns identifiers and follows HTTP redirects without validating that the target is a public address. An unauthenticated ACME account holder can exploit this to perform server-side request forgery (SSRF), making the Dogtag server send HTTP GET requests to internal network services. With the InMemory database backend, the response body of internal targets is disclosed to the attacker through the ACME challenge error.

Weakness: CWE-918
