CVE-2026-47256 is a path traversal and query-string injection vulnerability in the OpenTelemetry Collector Contrib Sentry exporter package, github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/exporter/sentryexporter. According to the provided advisory, attacker-controlled service.name values received from remote OTLP senders are used to derive Sentry project slug values without sufficient validation before constructing Sentry API URL paths. This allows a remote sender to manipulate the resulting Sentry API request path and query string, causing the collector to access arbitrary Sentry API endpoints using the bearer token configured by the operator for the exporter. The core flaw is improper neutralization of path elements in externally influenced URL construction, enabling traversal away from the intended project-specific API path and injection of attacker-chosen request components.
