The Operator creates a ServiceAccount with *ClusterRole* upon deployment of the *Namespace-Scoped* Custom Resource MonitorStack. This issue allows an adversarial Kubernetes Account with only namespaced-level roles, for example, a tenant controlling a namespace, to create a MonitorStack in the authorized namespace and then elevate permission to the cluster level by impersonating the ServiceAccount created by the Operator, resulting in privilege escalation and other issues.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":8.8},"cwes":["CWE-266"],"references":["https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2025:21146","https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2025-2843","https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2355222"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:14:53.307938015+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-2843","score":0.00352,"percentile":0.28566,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-mj6p-p843-x5wc","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-mj6p-p843-x5wc","summary":"Observability Operator is vulnerable to Incorrect Privilege Assignment through its Custom Resource MonitorStack","modified":"2025-11-17T19:58:35.439917Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/rhobs/observability-operator","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/rhobs/observability-operator","ranges":["<1.3.0"],"fixed":["1.3.0"]}]},{"id":"GO-2025-4125","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2025-4125","summary":"Observability Operator is vulnerable to Incorrect Privilege Assignment through its Custom Resource MonitorStack in github.com/rhobs/observability-operator","modified":"2026-03-03T04:57:38.758Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/rhobs/observability-operator","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/rhobs/observability-operator","ranges":["<1.3.0"],"fixed":["1.3.0"]}]}],"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).
