CVE-2026-81871

A flaw was found in OpenTelemetry-Go, specifically within its gRPC log exporter. This vulnerability allows a network attacker to bypass the intended private Certificate Authority (CA) pinning and mutual Transport Layer Security (TLS) configurations. The issue arises because the environment-only TLS path incorrectly uses system-trusted certificates instead of the application's configured client certificates. This bypass enables an attacker to intercept and spoof the collector connection, potentially leading to the unauthorized reading or alteration of sensitive log telemetry.
