Behoben in
3.1.2
CVE-2026-44796 describes a Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability discovered in Nautobot. Attackers can trigger this vulnerability by crafting malicious regular expressions within the find field of UI object-bulk-rename endpoints, combined with the use_regex flag. This can lead to an application-wide denial of service, rendering the Nautobot interface unresponsive. The vulnerability affects versions of Nautobot up to 3.1.1, and a fix is available in version 3.1.2.

Auswirkungen und Angriffsszenarienwird übersetzt…
The primary impact of CVE-2026-44796 is a denial of service. A successful exploit can overwhelm the Nautobot application with regular expression evaluation, preventing legitimate users from accessing and managing network devices and configurations. This disruption can significantly impact network operations and troubleshooting efforts. The vulnerability lies within the UI object-bulk-rename endpoints, specifically when the use_regex flag is enabled alongside a malicious find parameter. The regular expression engine's inability to handle complex or poorly formed patterns can lead to excessive resource consumption and application instability. The blast radius is the entire Nautobot application, potentially impacting all users.

Mitigation und Workaroundswird übersetzt…
The recommended mitigation for CVE-2026-44796 is to upgrade to Nautobot version 3.1.2 or later. This version introduces a general-purpose timeout to the affected endpoints, preventing regular expression evaluation from continuing indefinitely. If upgrading is not immediately feasible, consider restricting access to the /dcim/interfaces/rename/ and similar endpoints to trusted users only. While a direct workaround isn't available, careful input validation on the find field could offer limited protection, but is not a substitute for patching. After upgrading, confirm the fix by attempting to trigger the vulnerability with a known malicious regular expression and verifying that the request times out as expected.
