CVE-2026-91147: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10

Medium severity, CVSS 5.9. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A flaw was found in `cockpit-ws`. This vulnerability allows a remote, unauthenticated attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by sending a specially crafted request. When the `WebService.UrlRoot` is configured and a request is made to the exact URL-root prefix without a trailing slash, `cockpit-ws` can terminate unexpectedly. This issue leads to the unavailability of the Cockpit web service.
