Authenticated tenant (PR:L) reaches the hub API over the network (AV:N/AC:L) and abuses a controller crossing namespace/cluster trust boundaries (S:C) to disclose tokens and bypass policy (C:H/I:H); no availability impact.

DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw was found in multicloud-integrations, a component of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management (RHACM). This vulnerability allows an authenticated user, referred to as a tenant, to manipulate the GitOpsCluster controller. By exploiting this, a tenant can redirect sensitive spoke cluster bearer tokens from secure locations to a namespace they control. This unauthorized access to tokens can lead to the disclosure of critical information and bypass security policies within ArgoCD AppProjects.

AnalysisAI

Cross-tenant bearer-token disclosure in Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes 2 (RHACM) lets an authenticated tenant abuse the GitOpsCluster controller in the multicloud-integrations component to redirect spoke-cluster credentials into a namespace they control. Because the controller acts on the tenant's behalf across trust boundaries (a confused-deputy flaw), a low-privileged user can obtain tokens that grant access to managed spoke clusters and bypass ArgoCD AppProject scoping controls. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate as low-privileged RHACM tenant

Exploit

Execution
Read spoke-cluster bearer token Secret
Persist
Authenticate to managed spoke cluster
Impact
Bypass AppProject scope and access data

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires an authenticated RHACM tenant account on the hub with permission to create or modify GitOpsCluster custom resources in the multicloud-integrations/OpenShift GitOps integration; the deployment must be a shared/multi-tenant GitOps setup where spoke-cluster bearer tokens are managed by the GitOpsCluster controller and ArgoCD AppProjects are used for tenant isolation. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals are moderately consistent toward high priority: the CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity attack needing only low privileges and no user interaction, with a scope change reflecting that the compromised hub controller yields access to separate spoke clusters - appropriate for a confused-deputy token-theft flaw. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A legitimate but low-privileged tenant on a shared RHACM hub creates or edits a GitOpsCluster resource so that the controller writes a spoke cluster's bearer-token Secret into a namespace the tenant fully controls. The tenant then reads the Secret and uses the token to authenticate directly to the managed spoke cluster and to deploy outside their permitted ArgoCD AppProject scope. …
Remediation No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data, so monitor Red Hat's advisory at https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-70398 and the associated errata (referenced from Bugzilla 2514228) and apply the fixed multicloud-integrations/RHACM build for your 2.x channel as soon as it is published - that is the primary fix. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, audit all RHACM 2 deployments and inventory multicloud-integrations components; immediately restrict GitOpsCluster controller access through RBAC to only essential service accounts and disable the feature entirely if unused, then configure network policies to isolate the controller pod from untrusted tenant namespaces. …
