The short answer

CVE-2026-12977 affects Red Hat Red Hat Fuse 7 and is rated high (CVSS 8.8). It is not in CISA's KEV catalog; EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.25%.

What it is

A flaw was found in the deployment-operation family of WildFly Core. Certain handlers, such as upload-deployment-url, lack proper sensitivity classification, allowing an administrator with the restricted "Maintainer" role to read sensitive configuration files. This can lead to the exfiltration of credentials and full administrative control (SuperUser) of the server.

Weakness: CWE-267.
