Console commands are sent over the network (AV:N) by an already-authorized user (PR:L), needing no special timing (AC:L); impact is a DoS only, so C:N/I:N/A:H and S:U.

Robur Albatross 1.0.0 through 2.x before 2.7.2 does not limit use of the ring buffer, leading to an albatross-console loop with no recognized termination condition. This is only exploitable by users who can send console subscription commands to unikernels that produce sufficient log output to fill the ring buffer (1024 lines). It is not exploitable by unauthorized clients.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in Robur Albatross (specifically the albatross-console component) versions 1.0.0 through 2.x before 2.7.2 lets an authenticated user who can send console subscription commands drive the albatross-console process into an unterminated loop over the unikernel log ring buffer, consuming CPU and making console access unavailable. Exploitation requires the targeted unikernel to have generated enough output to fill the 1024-line ring buffer, and the request must specify a very high or negative line count, or a timestamp earlier than every buffered message; the vendor states it is not exploitable by unauthorized clients, and the independent assessment confirms PR:L with availability-only impact (C:N/I:N/A:H). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires an authenticated/authorized user (PR:L) who can send console subscription commands to albatross-console; the description states it is not exploitable by unauthorized clients. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine but bounded availability risk, not a high-urgency threat. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: upgrade Robur Albatross to 2.7.2 (released 2026-05-29), which contains the bounded ring-buffer traversal fix from PR #273 (https://github.com/robur-coop/albatross/pull/273) and is tracked publicly as OSEC-2026-09 at https://osv.dev/vulnerability/OSEC-2026-09. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all deployments of albatross-console in the 1.0.0 through 2.x range, restrict console subscription command privileges to the smallest possible set of trusted operators, and confirm least-privilege enforcement consistent with the CVSS PR:L (authenticated) requirement; add monitoring and alerting on sustained CPU saturation or unresponsive/hung albatross-console processes and ensure operators know the restart procedure to restore console access. …
