CVE-2026-55428 is a high-severity vulnerability in Coder with a CVSS 3.x base score of 8.2. It is not currently listed as actively exploited by CISA, and its EPSS exploit-prediction score is low. The underlying weakness is classified as CWE-285.

Key facts

Description

Coder allows organizations to provision remote development environments via Terraform. Prior to versions 2.29.7, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2, the tailnet coordinator validates that an agent's `Addresses` derive from its authenticated UUID but applies no equivalent check to `AllowedIPs`. The coordinator forwards agent-supplied `AllowedIPs` verbatim to tunnel peers which install them into the WireGuard peer configuration. The fix in versions 2.29.7, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2 validates each `AllowedIPs` prefix against the authenticating agent's UUID just like `Addresses`. As a workaround, monitor coordinator logs for agents advertising unexpected `AllowedIPs` prefixes.
