{"cve":"CVE-2024-56513","nvd":{"published":"2025-01-03T17:15:08.840","modified":"2026-06-17T08:12:16.593","status":"Deferred","description":"Karmada is a Kubernetes management system that allows users to run cloud-native applications across multiple Kubernetes clusters and clouds. Prior to version 1.12.0, the PULL mode clusters registered with the `karmadactl register` command have excessive privileges to access control plane resources. By abusing these permissions, an attacker able to authenticate as the karmada-agent to a karmada cluster would be able to obtain administrative privileges over the entire federation system including all registered member clusters. Since Karmada v1.12.0, command `karmadactl register` restricts the access permissions of pull mode member clusters to control plane resources. This way, an attacker able to authenticate as the karmada-agent cannot control other member clusters in Karmada. As a workaround, one may restrict the access permissions of pull mode member clusters to control plane resources according to Karmada Component Permissions Docs.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":8.7},"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":["CWE-266"],"references":["https://github.com/karmada-io/karmada/commit/2c82055c4c7f469411b1ba48c4dba4841df04831","https://github.com/karmada-io/karmada/pull/5793","https://github.com/karmada-io/karmada/security/advisories/GHSA-mg7w-c9x2-xh7r","https://karmada.io/docs/administrator/security/component-permission"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:57:56.913276502+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2024-56513","score":0.00491,"percentile":0.42218,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-mg7w-c9x2-xh7r","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-mg7w-c9x2-xh7r","summary":"Karmada PULL Mode Cluster Privilege Escalation","modified":"2025-01-07T16:27:08.171935Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/karmada-io/karmada","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/karmada-io/karmada","ranges":["<1.12.0"],"fixed":["1.12.0"]}]},{"id":"GO-2025-3364","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2025-3364","summary":"Karmada PULL Mode Cluster Privilege Escalation in github.com/karmada-io/karmada","modified":"2026-03-03T04:56:10.953458Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/karmada-io/karmada","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/karmada-io/karmada","ranges":["<1.12.0"],"fixed":["1.12.0"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
