Making sure your Kubernetes environment is secure and compliant is a critical, ongoing challenge, especially for enterprise workloads in the hybrid cloud. To help you meet security requirements with greater confidence and efficiency, we’ve just rolled out key updates to Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security for Kubernetes Cloud Service. This latest release helps significantly strengthen your security posture with newly added industry-standard certifications, including ISO 27001 and PCI DSS 4.0, and deeper integration with key AWS services. These enhancements are designed to streamline compliance

The Authorino service in the Red Hat Connectivity Link is the authorization service for zero trust API security. Authorino allows the users with developer persona to add callbacks to be executed to HTTP endpoints once the authorization process is completed. It was found that an attacker with developer persona access can add a large number of those callbacks to be executed by Authorino and as the authentication policy is enforced by a single instance of the service, this leada to a Denial of Service in Authorino while processing the post-authorization callbacks.

Open source has always been paradoxical: it's software developed by passionate developers and given away for free, yet it's monetized and funded by some of the largest companies in the world. An underdog, once called "a cancer," and yet it's the single largest driver of innovation and technological progress we have ever seen. In the world of open source, paradox will always exist, but nowhere more so than in the understanding of security vulnerabilities.Twenty-five years ago, the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) program was established to standardize the naming and tracking of softw

Red Hat is built on open source, a global decentralized and transparent community of international engineers who put security at the forefront of technology. Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is the trusted operating system (OS) used by more than 90% of Fortune 500 companies and customers in more than 174 countries. This trust is earned largely due to RHEL's reliability and stability as well as Red Hat's long history of actively contributing to open source projects. There is one key factor that is often discounted with respect to the Linux OS, however, which is its reputation for having enhanced

Grab a large sweet tea or a cup of coffee and read the 2024 Product Security Risk Report from Red Hat Product Security. As someone striving to stay informed about the open source ecosystem and its security challenges, I found this year's report noticeably longer, but the depth and detail didn’t disappoint. In fact, one notable addition to this year’s report is the discussion of AI. The numbers game: up, up, and...wait, what?First, let’s break down the raw numbers. Red Hat Security Advisories (RHSA) hit a new peak in 2024, clocking in at 2975. There has been a steady increase over the pa

Qualys details CVE-2025-5054 and CVE-2025-4598, critical vulnerabilities affecting Linux crash reporting tools like Apport and systemd-coredump. Learn how…

Two information disclosure flaws have been identified in apport and systemd-coredump, the core dump handlers in Ubuntu, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Fedora, according to the Qualys Threat Research Unit (TRU). Tracked as CVE-2025-5054 and CVE-2025-4598, both vulnerabilities are race condition bugs that could enable a local attacker to obtain access to access sensitive information. Tools like

Many organizations face challenges in creating value from data while maintaining strict regulatory standards set for handling sensitive data. For these organizations, handling large, complex data sets while maintaining efficiency, security and scalability becomes paramount to their deployment. The collaboration between Red Hat and Cloudera offers customers a solution that helps organizations to manage the complete data lifecycle, putting data to work faster and reducing time to value. With Cloudera Private Cloud on Red Hat OpenShift, organizations get aggregated and visualized data that can he

The new major release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) brings a number of important improvements in the confidential computing domain.

To understand Red Hat OpenShift's journey to quantum-safe cryptography, it helps to look at the current and planned post-quantum cryptography support in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). This is because OpenShift includes Red Hat Enterprise Linux CoreOS (RHCOS), which provides several important cryptographic libraries. Bringing post-quantum cryptography to OpenShift is not a one-line configuration, of course. It's an architectural transition.There are three main areas of focus when considering post-quantum cryptography for OpenShift: RHCOS kernelsOpenShift Core userspaceGo versions used by the
