Openstack · Openstack Ironic · CVE-2026-44916
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
OpenStack Ironic versions prior to 36.0
**Description**
In OpenStack Ironic, the `ks template` variable within `instance info` is rendered without sandboxing. Sandboxing is a security mechanism that isolates executing code to prevent it from accessing or modifying unauthorized parts of the system.
**Recommendations**
Update to a version later than 35.x.
As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the `ks template` variable within `instance info` to minimize the risk of exploitation.
