CVE-2026-50201
No affected components available
Steeltoe is an open source project that provides a collection of libraries that helps users build cloud-native applications. In Steeltoe.Management.Endpoint prior to version 4.2.0 and Steeltoe.Management.EndpointCore prior to version 3.4.0, all Steeltoe actuator endpoints default to EndpointPermissions.Restricted, which is mappeds to Cloud Foundry's read_basic_data permission (granted to Space Auditors and similar low-trust roles). Sensitive actuators including heap dump, environment, and thread dump do not raise this to EndpointPermissions.Full, so CF's read_sensitive_data permission flag is not enforced for those endpoints. Spring Boot's equivalent Cloud Foundry integration gates these endpoints with read_sensitive_data by default. Steeltoe.Management.Endpoint 4.2.0 and Steeltoe.Management.EndpointCore 3.4.0 patch the issue. If an immediate upgrade is not possible, explicitly set RequiredPermissions = EndpointPermissions.Full in the options for HeapDumpEndpointOptions, EnvironmentEndpointOptions, and ThreadDumpEndpointOptions; and/or if heap dump, thread dump, or environment are not needed in production, register only the required actuators individually instead of using AddAllActuators().
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network without needing physical access. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability. The impact is confined to the system where the vulnerability exists. There is a high impact on the confidentiality of the information.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
We did not find any exploit available. Neither in GitHub repositories nor in the Exploit-Database.
