GCVE Workshop - 22 September 2026 (14:00-18:00), Luxembourg Before The Vulnopticon Conference - Registration

CVE-2026-66780 (GCVE-0-2026-66780)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-08-18 17:32 – Updated: 2026-09-03 04:41

Title
Submariner-operator: broker serviceaccount secret (token + ca) logged in full at trace verbosity
Summary
A flaw was found in the submariner-operator component. The `submariner-k8s-broker-cluster` Role, which is assigned to joined clusters, possesses excessive permissions. This allows a compromised cluster to alter network configurations, specifically by overwriting other clusters' endpoint information. Consequently, an attacker can redirect inter-cluster tunnel traffic, enabling a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack across the entire cluster mesh.
