Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Versions of github.com/open-policy-agent/opa from 0.40.0 before 0.44.0 are affected. The Rego compiler's deprecated WithUnsafeBuiltins option can be bypassed by using the "with" keyword to mock a built-in function, which the unsafe-builtins check does not cover. The source gives few details on the exact attacker position or impact. Upgrade to version 0.44.0 or later.

Written 10 Nov 2026.
