GHSA-WRQ8-FCV5-8HVP
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-07-06 20:58 – Updated: 2026-07-06 20:58Summary
The tailnet coordinator validates that an agent's Addresses derive from its authenticated UUID but applies no equivalent check to AllowedIPs. The coordinator forwards agent-supplied AllowedIPs verbatim to tunnel peers which install them into the WireGuard peer configuration.
Impact
A malicious workspace agent can advertise arbitrary AllowedIPs prefixes including another agent's tailnet address. Coder's ServerTailnet routes to agents by tailnet IP so an agent that claims a victim's prefix can intercept web terminal and workspace app traffic and serve spoofed content. Exploitation requires an authenticated user with a running workspace and a modified agent binary.
Patches
The fix validates each AllowedIPs prefix against the authenticating agent's UUID just like Addresses.
The fix was backported to all supported release lines:
| Release line | Patched version |
|---|---|
| 2.34 | v2.34.2 |
| 2.33 | v2.33.8 |
| 2.32 | v2.32.7 |
| 2.29 (ESR) | v2.29.17 |
Workarounds
Operators who cannot upgrade immediately should monitor coordinator logs for agents advertising unexpected AllowedIPs prefixes.
Resources
- Fix: #26144
