CVE-2026-93017
HighCVSS 7.7Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk14th percentile - higher than 14% of all known CVEs
Summary
The `insights-operator-gather` ClusterRole grants the operator's service account read access to secrets in the core API group with no namespace or resourceNames restriction — therefore, access to every secret in every namespace in the cluster. By spawning a pod with the gather service account mounted, an attacker will be able to access any secret in any namespace.
Risk Assessment
The risk includes unauthorized access to all secrets in the cluster, potentially leading to confidentiality breaches of data, including credentials and keys.
Recommendation
It is recommended to restrict the ClusterRole permissions to the minimum required, e.g., by narrowing to specific namespaces or resourceNames, and to review existing permissions.
