CVE-2026-90455
Last modified
CVE-2026-90455 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.3/10 on the CVSS scale. A prior update that raised a bundled HTTP client library to a version remediating known vulnerabilities was later reverted, reintroducing the earlier, vulnerable version into a log-processing component. The only code path in that component using the library issues a request to a single fixed, trusted vendor URL at initialization and does not process attacker-controlled input through the library, limiting practical exploitability of the reintroduced version in this context..
