CVE-2026-46358: OpenBao's Inline Auth Incorrectly Redacted Headers
OpenBao’s inline auth functionality incorrectly redacted audit log entries, resulting in non-auth headers being removed and auth-related headers being retained in cleartext. This requires an attacker to compromise access to the audit device. Operators should review leaked source authentication material and rotate it as appropriate.
