High CVSS 7.7

CVE-2026-14251

A flaw was found in the OpenShift GitOps operator. The ClusterRole reconciler does not validate resource ownership when reconciling ClusterRole objects. A namespace-scoped Argo CD instance can trigger deletion of a ClusterRole owned by a cluster-scoped Argo CD instance by crafting a name collision, resulting in a denial of service.

What this means

Exposure
Exploitable remotely over the network, with an ordinary user account and with no action from the victim.
Impact
An attacker can take the service offline. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
Weakness
No authorisation check happens before the action.
Likelihood
Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
