Because the pagination URL is not validated against the host originally contacted, a malicious or compromised GitHub server can return a `Link` header pointing to an attacker-controlled host and cause Renovate to disclose those credentials to it. Exploitation requires that the GitHub server Renovate talks to (as the repository host or as a datasource such as github-releases, github-tags, or git-refs) is already malicious or compromised. The issue is fixed in renovate 44.11.3 (npm and renovate/renovate container images), Mend Renovate CE/EE images and the mend-renovate-ce helm chart 15.4.0, and the mend-renovate-enterprise-edition helm chart 10.4.0. There is no workaround; the pre-existing RENOVATE_X_REBASE_PAGINATION_LINKS option disables the new host check and should only be used with servers that intentionally use different pagination hosts.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-09-10T13:05:32.249+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-09-29T22:10:37.776+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"renovate","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n \"vendor\": \"renovatebot\",\n \"product\": \"renovate\",\n \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versions\": [\n {\n \"version\": \"0\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n \"lessThan\": \"44.11.3\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"44.11.3\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n }\n ]\n }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"renovate-ce","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n \"vendor\": \"mend\",\n \"product\": \"renovate-ce\",\n \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versions\": [\n {\n \"version\": \"0\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n \"lessThan\": \"15.4.0\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"15.4.0\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n }\n ]\n }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"renovate-ee-server","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n \"vendor\": \"mend\",\n \"product\": \"renovate-ee-server\",\n \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versions\": [\n {\n \"version\": \"0\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n \"lessThan\": \"15.4.0\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"15.4.0\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n }\n ]\n }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"renovate-ee-worker","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n \"vendor\": \"mend\",\n \"product\": \"renovate-ee-worker\",\n \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versions\": [\n {\n \"version\": \"0\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n \"lessThan\": \"15.4.0\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"15.4.0\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n }\n ]\n }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"mend-renovate-ce","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n \"vendor\": \"mend\",\n \"product\": \"mend-renovate-ce\",\n \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versions\": [\n {\n \"version\": \"0\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n \"lessThan\": \"15.4.0\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"15.4.0\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n }\n ]\n }"},{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"mend-renovate-enterprise-edition","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n \"vendor\": \"mend\",\n \"product\": \"mend-renovate-enterprise-edition\",\n \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versions\": [\n {\n \"version\": \"0\",\n \"status\": \"affected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\",\n \"lessThan\": \"10.4.0\"\n },\n {\n \"version\": \"10.4.0\",\n \"status\": \"unaffected\",\n \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n }\n ]\n }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:N/SA:N","score":9.2,"severity":"CRITICAL"},{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N","score":8.6,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/security/advisories/GHSA-w57v-h33h-835c","https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/renovate-before-44.11.3-credential-exfiltration-via-link-header-2"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-88881","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-88881","identifiers":["CVE-2026-88881"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
