Vulnerability in Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (CVE-2026-66787)

Summary

Vulnerability in Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (CVE-2026-66787). Confidential information can be exposed externally.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

A flaw was found in the lighthouse component of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes. This vulnerability stems from insufficient validation of advertised IP addresses within EndpointSlice objects. A compromised spoke cluster can exploit this by creating EndpointSlices with attacker-controlled IP addresses, causing other clusters' lighthouse DNS to redirect legitimate service traffic to malicious endpoints. This enables a remote attacker to conduct transparent Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks on cross-cluster service communications, potentially leading to unauthorized information disclosure and data manipulation.
