From 1.8.1 until 5.8.4, a container image that contains a environment variable with just a key and no value can trick podman into passing that variable from the host into the container. This is made worse by the fact that using an asterisk (*) will cause podman to pass all host variables into the container. So essentially a malicious image can exfiltrate all podman environment variables that are set in the session from where the container is launched. This vulnerability is fixed in 5.8.4 and 6.0.0.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-06-26T17:16:34.697+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-07-06T13:30:12.47+00:00","affected":[],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1 · security-advisories@github.com · Secondary","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","score":7.5,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/podman-container-tools/podman/commit/6c431b73dbf8e4b20b778644d7a80caebdb75050","https://github.com/podman-container-tools/podman/security/advisories/GHSA-4hq8-gpf5-8p68"],"sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-57231","license":"NIST NVD usage terms; underlying source attribution retained","enrichment":{"sourceStatus":"Analyzed","weaknesses":["CWE-200","CWE-668"],"productCriteria":["cpe:2.3:a:podman_project:podman:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","cpe:2.3:a:podman_project:podman:6.0.0:rc1:*:*:*:*:*:*"],"sourceDates":{"published":"2026-06-26T17:16:34.697","lastModified":"2026-07-06T13:30:12.470"},"relatedAdvisories":[],"note":"NVD analysis and CPE criteria are source context, not proof that a package or your environment is affected.
