CVE-2026-91163

Warpgate is an open source SSH, HTTPS, and MySQL bastion host for Linux. Prior to 0.29.0, the Kubernetes protocol listener uses AcceptAnyClientCert in warpgate-protocol-kubernetes/src/server/client_certs.rs to accept certificates at the TLS layer and defer validation to warpgate-protocol-kubernetes/src/server/auth.rs, where authentication and lookup failures are rendered verbatim in an HTTP 500 response body. The Kubernetes application in warpgate-protocol-kubernetes/src/server/mod.rs lacks the outer request-logging wrapper used by the HTTP protocol, and failures in warpgate-protocol-kubernetes/src/server/handlers.rs can short-circuit before its inner log point. An unauthenticated network client can therefore induce failures and receive ASN.1/DER parser diagnostics or sea_orm database errors without the attempt being recorded in the gateway log. The disclosed information is limited to internal diagnostics, and no user-data, integrity, or availability impact is established. This issue is fixed in version 0.29.0.

Technical explanation & impact

Technical root-cause details are not available in the current source record.

Assess the impact using the published CVSS metrics and the affected vendor component.

Affected products and versions

NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.

Remediation & validation

  1. Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
  2. Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
  3. Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
  4. Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.

No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
