CVE-2026-50201
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. 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()".
