DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw was found in the multicloud-operators-subscription component. This vulnerability allows a tenant, who has the ability to create HelmRelease custom resources (CRs), to bypass existing security controls. The system's HelmRelease controller processes Helm chart templates using its own elevated ServiceAccount privileges without proper validation. This enables the tenant to deploy arbitrary resources across the entire cluster, leading to a significant security compromise.

AnalysisAI

Privilege escalation and cluster-wide arbitrary resource deployment affects the multicloud-operators-subscription component of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes 2. A low-privileged tenant permitted to create HelmRelease custom resources can abuse the HelmRelease controller, which renders and applies Helm chart templates using its own elevated ServiceAccount, to deploy arbitrary resources anywhere in the cluster and bypass namespace/RBAC boundaries. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate as tenant with HelmRelease create rights
Delivery
Submit crafted Helm chart with cluster-scoped manifests
Exploit
Controller renders templates under elevated ServiceAccount
Execution
Arbitrary resources applied cluster-wide
Impact
Grant self cluster-admin and compromise cluster

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated tenant identity (CVSS PR:L) that has been granted RBAC permission to create HelmRelease custom resources handled by the multicloud-operators-subscription HelmRelease controller in RHACM 2.x. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals point to a genuine high priority rather than an inflated CVSS. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A tenant with delegated permission to create HelmRelease CRs in their own namespace submits a crafted Helm chart whose templates declare cluster-scoped objects such as a ClusterRoleBinding granting cluster-admin to the tenant, plus resources in namespaces they do not own. The HelmRelease controller renders and applies these manifests under its own elevated ServiceAccount, so the objects are created cluster-wide, giving the tenant control over the entire cluster. …
Remediation Consult the Red Hat advisory at https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-67567 (tracking bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2514224) and upgrade RHACM to the fixed release once published; no vendor-released patch version is identified in the provided data, so verify the exact patched build directly with Red Hat before scheduling. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: Audit and document all systems running RHACM 2 and identify which tenants have HelmRelease creation permissions. …
