Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-44188 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44188/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44188/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-44188","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44188/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-44188","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r7cm-w9ch-cf3g","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-44188"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ansible Lightspeed","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can hijack sessions by reusing stolen OAuth tokens that are not invalidated upon logout, gaining unauthorized read access to Ansible resources.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-613","name":"DEPRECATED: Insufficient Session Expiration"}],"description":"A flaw was found in Ansible Lightspeed. This vulnerability, related to insufficient session expiration, allows a remote attacker to maintain persistent access to the Ansible Lightspeed instance. If an attacker exfiltrates a valid OAuth (Open Authorization) access token before a user logs out, they can continue to authenticate and access sensitive data. This is because the application fails to invalidate the token on the backend, leaving it valid until its natural expiration. This can lead to unauthorized read access to Ansible resources such as inventories, playbooks, and configuration data.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Auth bypass in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2","id":"CVE-2026-44188","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2","id":"CVE-2026-44189"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2","id":"CVE-2026-44187"},"products":["Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2","Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.6","Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.7"],"published":"2026-06-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-20","vendors":["Red Hat"]},"summary":"Attackers can hijack sessions by reusing stolen OAuth tokens that are not invalidated upon logout, gaining unauthorized read access to Ansible resources.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44188/"}
