{"id":"CVE-2024-9779","summary":"Open-cluster-management-io/ocm: cluster-manager permissions may allow a worker node to obtain service account tokens","details":"A flaw was found in Open Cluster Management (OCM) when a user has access to the worker nodes which contain the cluster-manager or klusterlet deployments. The cluster-manager deployment uses a service account with the same name \"cluster-manager\" which is bound to a ClusterRole also named \"cluster-manager\", which includes the permission to create Pod resources. If this deployment runs a pod on an attacker-controlled node, the attacker can obtain the cluster-manager's token and steal any service account token by creating and mounting the target service account to control the whole cluster.","aliases":["GHSA-jhh6-6fhp-q2xp","GO-2024-3343"],"modified":"2026-05-18T05:57:23.940353712Z","published":"2024-12-17T22:59:07.511Z","related":["SUSE-SU-2025:0060-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:14608-1"],"database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-266"],"cna_assigner":"redhat","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/9xxx/CVE-2024-9779.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://access.redhat.com/downloads/content/package-browser/"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/ocm/releases/tag/v0.13.0"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-9779"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/9xxx/CVE-2024-9779.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-9779"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2317916"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/registration-operator/issues/361"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/ocm/pull/325"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/ocm","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1c3cb033b096c0e95575dfbf6d5d12126f5d7e57"}]}],"versions":["v0.12.0","v0.11.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2024-9779.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:H/A:N"}]}
