Starting in version 0.10.0 and prior to version 1.3.2, a bug in the `webhook` generator initialization order incorrectly cleared the label-enforcement flag (`EnforceLabels`) after it was set, resulting in the provider-side check for `external-secrets.io/type=webhook` being skipped (and the operation to succeed while it should have failed with `secret does not contain needed label 'external-secrets.io/type: webhook'. Update secret label to use it with webhook`. Version 1.3.2 contains a patch.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N","score":7.1},"cwes":["CWE-696"],"references":["https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/commit/25aa09275861e3ed6fc5d2a1a60b9ac3df4a93ba","https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/pull/5901","https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/releases/tag/v1.3.2","https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/security/advisories/GHSA-q7hv-xx6h-q2x8"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:57:46.668721662+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-26287","score":0.00244,"percentile":0.155,"date":"2026-10-26"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-q7hv-xx6h-q2x8","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-q7hv-xx6h-q2x8","summary":"External Secrets Operator: label enforcement bypass in webhook generator enables secret exfiltration","modified":"2026-10-20T00:55:45.081616683Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets","ranges":[">=0.10.0 <1.3.2"],"fixed":["1.3.2"]}]},{"id":"GO-2026-6667","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2026-6667","summary":"External Secrets Operator: label enforcement bypass in webhook generator enables secret exfiltration in github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets","modified":"2026-10-20T00:45:10.097500666Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets","ranges":[">=0.10.0 <1.3.2"],"fixed":["1.3.2"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
