GHSA-RF6J-X765-J4P2

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-20 21:31 – Updated: 2026-08-20 21:31

Details

A flaw was found in the multicloud-operators-subscription component of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management (RHACM). A tenant with HelmRelease create permissions can exploit this vulnerability by manipulating the secretRef.Namespace field. This allows the GetSecret() function in the HelmRelease controller to fetch sensitive credentials from any namespace, which are then sent to an attacker-controlled Helm repository. This can lead to the exfiltration of credentials from arbitrary namespace Secrets, resulting in information disclosure.

Severity

7.7 (High)
