CVE-2026-55108: KubeVela Terraform remote loader DoS via unbounded file read

August 28, 2026

KubeVela’s Terraform remote configuration loader can be abused to make vela-core read an unbounded byte stream into memory, causing an out-of-memory kill and a control-plane denial of service.

The issue is reachable when a user with permission to create or update a core.oam.dev/v1beta1 ComponentDefinition registers a Terraform remote schematic that points to a malicious or compromised git repository. The repository can contain a variables.tf symlink that resolves to /dev/zero after checkout. vela-core follows the symlink and calls os.ReadFile before HCL parsing, so memory grows until the controller is OOM killed.
