CVE-2026-63131
Published:September 22, 2026
Updated:September 23, 2026
When a policy operator has written "capabilities = ["deny"]" on a path with a trailing wildcard but allowed a broader list operation (e.g., a "deny" on "secrets/metadata/restricted/*" but allowed "list" on "secrets/metadata/*"), OpenBao would incorrectly allow the operation. This did not impact other operation types.
