CVE-2026-75430: PowerJob Worker version 5.1.2 (and likely earlier versions) exposes the /worker/deployContainer HTTP endpoint
CVE-2026-75430 is a critical-severity flaw (CVSS 9.8) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
PowerJob Worker version 5.1.2 (and likely earlier versions) exposes the /worker/deployContainer HTTP endpoint without authentication on the default transport port. This allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Why this priority
- Critical severity
- CISA SSVC: automatable with total technical impact
- Remotely exploitable, no login, no user action
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
