CVE-2026-66783
CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
A flaw was found in the submariner-operator component of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes. This vulnerability allows a cluster administrator, or any user with permissions to modify the Submariner Custom Resource (CR), to specify an unvalidated image path. This lack of validation enables an attacker to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges across the entire cluster, including control-plane nodes, by deploying a malicious image.

Weaknesses
- CWE-20: Improper Input Validation
Workarounds
To mitigate this issue, restrict access to cluster-admin roles and carefully control permissions for users or service accounts that can modify Submariner Custom Resources. Ensure that only trusted and authorized personnel have the ability to patch Submariner CRs, thereby preventing the injection of malicious images.
