Agree with vendor: network-reachable token reuse (AV:N/AC:L), PR:N since the attacker reuses a stale token rather than authenticating with own current creds, UI:R because a victim logout is required, C:H/I:H from full account/cluster access, A:N.

Incorrect credential cleaning on logout could be used by remote attackers to keep access credentials even after the account was logged out. Affected is SUSE Rancher 2.15 before 2.15.2.
Articles & Coverage 1
AnalysisAI
Remote attackers holding a previously issued Rancher session token can retain access even after the legitimate user logs out in SUSE Rancher 2.15 before 2.15.2, because the server fails to clear credentials on logout (CWE-613). This session persistence flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1 (High) with network reach, low complexity, no attacker privileges (PR:N), and required user interaction (UI:R) for the logout. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to already possess a valid Rancher session credential/token that was issued before the victim's logout, and requires the legitimate user to perform a logout (UI:R) which the attacker expects to have no effect due to improper server-side credential cleaning. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N) yields a base score of 8.1 (High), driven by network reach, low complexity, no attacker privileges, and high confidentiality plus integrity impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: upgrade to SUSE Rancher 2.15.2 or later. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all Rancher deployments to confirm which run 2.15 below 2.15.2, treat every session token and API key issued to those instances as potentially reusable after logout, and centrally revoke and reissue all active Rancher session and API tokens; simultaneously confirm audit logging is enabled and restrict the Rancher management interface to trusted networks or VPN. …
