{"apiVersion":"1.0","identifier":"CVE-2026-70496","description":"A flaw was found in search-v2-operator. The operator-s ClusterRole has permissions equivalent to a cluster administrator, allowing it to impersonate other entities, write Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) configurations, approve Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs), and manage ManifestWork. This grants excessive privileges beyond what is necessary for the operator-s intended function, potentially leading to privilege escalation within the cluster.","publishedAt":"2026-08-19T19:17:23","lastModifiedAt":"2026-08-27T04:16:46","sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-70496","cvssScore":9.9,"cvssVector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","epssProbability":0.00432,"riskScore":1.03,"affectedProduct":"search-v2-operator","affectedVersions":"unknown","vulnerabilityType":"Other","operatingSystems":[],"links":{"self":"https://www.redsauce.net/api/cves/CVE-2026-70496","webPages":{"es":"https://www.redsauce.net/es/cves/CVE-2026-70496","en":"https://www.redsauce.net/en/cves/CVE-2026-70496","fr":"https://www.redsauce.net/fr/cves/CVE-2026-70496","pt":"https://www.redsauce.net/pt/cves/CVE-2026-70496","de":"https://www.redsauce.net/de/cves/CVE-2026-70496","sk":"https://www.redsauce.net/sk/cves/CVE-2026-70496","el":"https://www.redsauce.net/el/cves/CVE-2026-70496"},"source":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-70496"}}
