Summary
Chainguard MinIO through RELEASE.2026-09-21T00-15-41Z does not verify all x-amz-* headers in Signature V4 requests, which is a case of improper verification of a cryptographic signature (CWE-347). A remote attacker with no privileges and no user interaction can escalate a presigned PUT URL into a read of objects in another bucket.
