OpenShift AI 3.4.5 ships as a Critical security update with 298 listed CVEs

Red Hat has published updated images, but the linked 3.4 release notes still describe 3.4.4 and the advisory says upgrade documentation will be refreshed shortly.

By The News Desk· Oct 19, 2026the quick take — two AI hosts go live when you do

Red Hat has issued a Critical security advisory for Red Hat OpenShift AI 3.4.5, publishing updated images and directing administrators to the OpenShift AI documentation for upgrade instructions. The October 19 advisory lists 298 CVEs.

What changed

RHSA-2026:84734 identifies the update as “RHOAI 3.4.5 - Red Hat OpenShift AI” and rates it Critical. The advisory does not provide per-component change notes or name one vulnerability as the reason for the overall rating; instead, it publishes a long consolidated CVE list and points to updated product images.

That distinction matters operationally. The rating is enough to make the update urgent, but the advisory alone does not support conclusions about a single exploit path, affected deployment pattern or mitigation. Teams should avoid inferring those details from the CVE count.

Who is affected

The advisory names Red Hat OpenShift AI as the affected product and specifically packages the fix as version 3.4.5. Administrators maintaining the 3.4 line should treat this as the relevant update notice and review their installed version against the new images.

There is a documentation timing gap at publication. Red Hat says the OpenShift AI documentation “will be updated shortly” with important upgrade instructions. The current 3.4 release-notes landing page still says it covers version 3.4.4.

What to do

Platform teams should identify OpenShift AI 3.4 deployments, open the advisory for the authoritative image and CVE list, and watch the linked product documentation for the promised 3.4.5 upgrade procedure. Because the release notes have not yet caught up, this is a case for following Red Hat’s published upgrade instructions when they appear rather than improvising from the advisory’s package list.

This desk found no claim in the advisory that the listed vulnerabilities are being exploited in the wild. The story clears the security threshold because Red Hat rates the update Critical, not because exploitation has been established.
