CVE-2026-96658 is a Safemode sandbox bypass in Foreman's templating engine. Improper handling of delegated methods allows an authenticated attacker with low-level permissions to append unauthorized functions to the allowed execution list. This defeats the sandbox's execution restrictions and enables arbitrary command execution on the Foreman hosting server.
