CVE-2026-61674 Sep 21, 16:10 CRITICAL PATCH Act Now

Stack-based buffer overflow in Fluent Bit's out_forward Secure Forward plugin (versions 0.11.0 through releases prior to 5.0.8) lets an attacker who controls or can impersonate the configured forwarding destination overwrite stack memory while Fluent Bit processes the handshake PONG response. The vulnerable path is only reachable when the out_forward output plugin is configured in Secure Forward mode with Shared_Key or Empty_Shared_Key - not the default output configuration - and the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N) plus the independent CVSS 3.1 assessment (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) both characterize it as an unauthenticated network attack that depends on specific deployment preconditions. Impact ranges from reliable process termination on builds compiled with a stack canary to full remote code execution as the Fluent Bit process user on builds lacking canary protection or where a memory-disclosure primitive exists; the opt-in --supervisor mode with fork-only respawns further weakens hardened builds by preserving canary and address layout across restarts. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the issue is fixed in version 5.0.8.
