Red Hat search-v2-api: denial of service
High7.5CVE-2026-71469 · Published Aug 12, 2026 · updated Aug 27, 2026
A flaw was found in search-v2-api. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by sending requests with unique random bearer tokens. Each unique token creates a permanent entry in the unbounded tokenReviews cache, which is not properly cleared. This can lead to memory exhaustion of the search-api pod, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
