Project: Cloud [1]
Project machine name: cloud
Date: 2026-September-23
Security risk: *Critical* 15 ∕ 25
AC:Basic/A:Admin/CI:All/II:All/E:Theoretical/TD:Uncommon [2]
Vulnerability: Remote code execution

Affected versions: <7.0.1
CVE IDs: CVE-2026-96376
Description: 
The Cloud module enables users to manage cloud resources through Drupal.

The module does not sufficiently sanitize user-controlled Git branch and
repository URL values before passing them to shell commands in the Kubernetes
integration. This vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary
operating-system commands as the web-server user.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the Kubernetes submodule
must be enabled and configured, Git must be available on the server, and an
attacker must have permission to add or edit cloud server templates.
Exploiting the clone path additionally requires the "launch cloud server
template" permission, or the "launch approved cloud server template"
permission when using the approved-template flow.

Solution: 
Install the latest version:

 * If you use Cloud 7.x, upgrade to Cloud 7.0.1 [3].
