# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2024-47211

Advisory: OpenStack Ironic fails to verify checksums of supplied image_source URLs
IDs: CVE-2024-47211, GHSA-8h22-6qwx-q4w9
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2024-47211 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 13:26 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.9)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Partial vendor fix; fixed versions by package: ironic 26.1.1, 24.1.3, 23.0.3. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- PyPI ironic: affected >= 25.0.0, < 26.1.1; >= 23.1.0, < 24.1.3; >= 22.0.0, < 23.0.3; <= 21.4.3; fixed in 23.0.3, 24.1.3, 26.1.1

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `python -m pip show ironic`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on ironic.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
