CVE-2026-73267
HighCVSS 7.7Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk50th percentile - higher than 50% of all known CVEs
Summary
A flaw was found in the clusterclaims-controller component of multicluster engine (MCE). A tenant with standard permissions to create and delete ClusterClaim resources can exploit this by manipulating the `spec.namespace` field. This allows the tenant to specify and delete any ManagedCluster, including the hub's local-cluster or other tenants' clusters, due to a missing ownership check. This vulnerability can lead to a denial of service by enabling unauthorized deletion of ManagedClusters.
Risk Assessment
Unauthorized deletion of clusters can cause service disruptions and data loss, posing a serious risk to business continuity.
Recommendation
Restrict permissions to create and delete ClusterClaim resources and apply patches provided by the MCE vendor.
