Severity by source
AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Attacker must be an enrolled member cluster (PR:L) reachable over the network (AV:N); unvalidated advertisement affects trusted peer clusters (S:C) allowing traffic interception, tampering, and disruption (C/I/A:H).

2DescriptionCVE.org
A flaw was found in Submariner. This vulnerability allows a malicious cluster (spoke) to redirect network traffic from other connected clusters (peer clusters) by publishing a specially crafted network endpoint. The system fails to properly validate the network subnets provided by the malicious cluster, enabling it to declare arbitrary network ranges. Consequently, all network traffic intended for these arbitrary ranges from peer clusters will be rerouted through the attacker's tunnel, potentially leading to unauthorized information disclosure or network disruption.
AnalysisAI
Cross-cluster traffic redirection in Submariner (as shipped with Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes 2) allows a malicious or compromised member cluster to hijack traffic from peer clusters by advertising a specially crafted network endpoint. Because Submariner does not validate the subnets a spoke cluster declares, an attacker-controlled cluster can claim arbitrary CIDR ranges and cause peer clusters to route all matching traffic through the attacker's tunnel, enabling information disclosure and denial of connectivity. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to be an active participant in the Submariner connectivity mesh - a malicious or compromised spoke/member cluster that is joined to the broker and able to publish network endpoints (consistent with CVSS PR:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H = 9.9) reflects a high-impact, low-complexity attack, but the PR:L requirement is critical context: the attacker must already be a participating (spoke) cluster in the Submariner mesh, i.e. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who controls or compromises one spoke cluster in a Submariner mesh publishes a crafted endpoint advertising a broad subnet (for example, the CIDR of a sensitive service network in a peer cluster). Peer cluster gateways accept the unvalidated advertisement and reroute traffic destined for that range through the attacker's tunnel, letting the attacker sniff, manipulate, or drop cross-cluster traffic. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patched version is identified in the provided data; consult the Red Hat CVE page (https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-66785) and Bugzilla 2507530 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2507530) for errata (RHSA) and apply the fixed Submariner/RHACM build once published. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
