Starting in version 0.10.0 and prior to version 1.3.2, a bug in the `webhook` generator initialization order incorrectly cleared the label-enforcement flag (`EnforceLabels`) after it was set, resulting in the provider-side check for `external-secrets.io/type=webhook` being skipped (and the operation to succeed while it should have failed with `secret does not contain needed label 'external-secrets.io/type: webhook'. Update secret label to use it with webhook`. Version 1.3.2 contains a patch.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-06T15:31:56.088+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-06T17:21:44.292+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"external-secrets","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"external-secrets\",\n                    \"product\": \"external-secrets\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 0.10.0, < 1.3.2\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N","score":7.1,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/security/advisories/GHSA-q7hv-xx6h-q2x8","https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/pull/5901","https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/commit/25aa09275861e3ed6fc5d2a1a60b9ac3df4a93ba","https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/releases/tag/v1.3.2"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-26287","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-26287","identifiers":["CVE-2026-26287"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
