High CVSS 8.7
CVE-2026-75924
NVD analysis in progress
A flaw was found in managed-serviceaccount. A compromised addon-manager pod, due to its ClusterRole granting excessive permissions, can read any secret across all namespaces. Additionally, it can approve arbitrary Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs), which could lead to information disclosure and privilege escalation within the cluster.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with a privileged account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data and modify or destroy data. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- Privilege handling is faulty, so an account ends up with more rights than intended.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
