CVE-2025-58713

A container privilege escalation flaw was found in certain Red Hat Process Automation Manager images.

Published Apr 8, 2026 · updated Jul 24, 2026 · redhat process automation manager

A container privilege escalation flaw was found in certain Red Hat Process Automation Manager images. This issue stems from the /etc/passwd file being created with group-writable permissions during build time. In certain conditions, an attacker who can execute commands within an affected container, even as a non-root user, can leverage their membership in the root group to modify the /etc/passwd file. This could allow the attacker to add a new user with any arbitrary UID, including UID 0, leading to full root privileges within the container.
