Overview

CVE-2026-50192 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 20, 2026.

Technical description

Kerberos Agent is an open source video (surveillance) management agent. Prior to version 3.6.26, the Kerberos Hub upload path sends the agent's Hub credentials in the custom `X-Kerberos-Hub-PrivateKey` and `X-Kerberos-Hub-PublicKey` request headers to the operator-configured Hub URL (`config.HubURI`). The HTTP client used (`&http.Client{}` in `UploadKerberosHub`) is constructed without a `CheckRedirect` policy, so it follows HTTP redirects automatically. Go's `net/http` strips only sensitive headers (`Authorization`, `Cookie`, `WWW-Authenticate`) on a cross-host redirect; it does not strip custom headers such as `X-Kerberos-Hub-PrivateKey`. As a result, if the configured `HubURI` returns a cross-host 30x redirect, the Hub private key is forwarded verbatim to the redirect target, disclosing the credential to an unintended third party. Version 3.6.26 fixes the issue by implementing the `CheckRedirect` strip plus a cross-host regression test is provided to the maintainer through the advis
