CVE-2026-50194
Published:June 17, 2026
Updated:June 29, 2026
Steeltoe is an open source project that provides a collection of libraries that helps users build cloud-native applications. When Steeltoe management endpoints versions 3.2.2 through 3.3.0 and 4.1.0 are configured to listen on an alternate port ("Management:Endpoints:Port" is configured), the middleware responsible for restricting access to the endpoints uses the "Host" HTTP header rather than the actual network socket port. Versions 3.4.0 and 4.2.0 patch the issue. If an immediate upgrade to a patched version is not possible, add explicit ASP.NET Core authorization ("RequireAuthorization") to all sensitive actuator endpoints as a defense-in-depth measure independent of port isolation and/or configure the reverse proxy or load balancer to enforce the "Host" header value and prevent clients from setting an arbitrary port.
