CVE-2026-59296
Using untrusted, non-normalized input as-is for metrics data (such as metric names, tag keys, or tag values) is a dangerous antipattern that general-purpose instrumentation should never perform.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.30%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
