GHSA-7H8M-PVW3-5GH4
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-10-25 19:35 – Updated: 2025-04-16 13:17Impact
A vulnerability has been identified whereby Rancher Manager deployments containing Windows nodes have weak Access Control Lists (ACL), allowing BUILTIN\Users or NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users to view or edit sensitive files which could lead to privilege escalation.
The affected files include binaries, scripts, configuration and log files:
C:\etc\rancher\wins\config
C:\var\lib\rancher\agent\rancher2_connection_info.json
C:\etc\rancher\rke2\config.yaml.d\50-rancher.yaml
C:\var\lib\rancher\agent\applied\*-*-applied.plan
C:\usr\local\bin\rke2
C:\var\lib\rancher\capr\idempotence\idempotent.sh
RKE2 nodes expand the list to include the files below:
C:\etc\rancher\node\password
C:\var\lib\rancher\rke2\agent\logs\kubelet.log
C:\var\lib\rancher\rke2\data\v1.**.**-rke2r*-windows-amd64-*\bin\*
C:\var\lib\rancher\rke2\bin\*
This vulnerability is exclusive to deployments that contain Windows nodes. Linux-only environments are not affected by it.
Please consult the associated MITRE ATT&CK - Technique - Exploitation for Privilege Escalation for further information about this category of attack.
Patches
Patched versions include Rancher Manager 2.8.9 and 2.9.3. For RKE2 Windows nodes, please refer to its specific advisory. No patches are available for 2.7, therefore users are urged to upgrade to newer minor versions or to apply the manual workaround below.
Workarounds
Users are advised to upgrade to a patched version of Rancher Manager. When that is not possible, users can enforce stricter ACLs for all sensitive files affected by this Security Advisory running this PowerShell script as an Administrator on each node.

Mitigation MIT-1
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Mitigation MIT-48
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.
Mitigation MIT-49
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
Consider following the principle of separation of privilege. Require multiple conditions to be met before permitting access to a system resource.
CAPEC-122: Privilege Abuse
An adversary is able to exploit features of the target that should be reserved for privileged users or administrators but are exposed to use by lower or non-privileged accounts. Access to sensitive information and functionality must be controlled to ensure that only authorized users are able to access these resources.
CAPEC-233: Privilege Escalation
An adversary exploits a weakness enabling them to elevate their privilege and perform an action that they are not supposed to be authorized to perform.
CAPEC-58: Restful Privilege Elevation
An adversary identifies a Rest HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permission method allowing them to perform various malicious actions upon server data due to lack of access control mechanisms implemented within the application service accepting HTTP messages.
