What is CVE-2026-27482?

CVE-2026-27482 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in ray-project ray, published on 21 Feb 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

Ray is an AI compute engine. In versions 2.53.0 and below, thedashboard HTTP server blocks browser-origin POST/PUT but does not cover DELETE, and key DELETE endpoints are unauthenticated by default. If the dashboard/agent is reachable (e.g., --dashboard-host=0.0.0.0), a web page via DNS rebinding or same-network access can issue DELETE requests that shut down Serve or delete jobs without user interaction. This is a drive-by availability impact. The fix for this vulnerability is to update to Ray 2.54.0 or higher.

Weakness: CWE-396
