CVE-2026-71473
Acm-search-v2-rhel9: search-v2-operator: addonfactory.getvaluesfromaddonannotation enables arbitrary helm-values override per spoke
A flaw was found in the search-v2-operator component. A user with specific administrative permissions on a managed cluster can exploit a vulnerability that allows them to inject arbitrary configuration data. This manipulation can override critical settings, leading to the replacement of container images. This ultimately results in container image injection on the managed cluster, potentially compromising its integrity.
