CVE-2026-70496

search-v2-operator

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.
