CVE-2026-18949

Odh-dashboard: odh-dashboard: clusterrole grants cluster-wide crud on secrets and rbac management resources

Published Aug 10, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.8 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
A flaw was found in odh-dashboard. This vulnerability allows an attacker, who has compromised the dashboard's Service Account (SA) token, to exploit overly broad permissions granted to the SA. This enables the attacker to escalate their privileges to cluster-administrator level, gain access to sensitive data like credentials and keys across the entire cluster, and disrupt multi-tenant isolation.

Remediation

Vendor Workaround

To mitigate this issue, restrict access to the `opendatahub` namespace to limit potential compromise of the dashboard pod. Implement egress `NetworkPolicy` rules to control and restrict outbound network traffic from the dashboard. Additionally, configure audit log alerting to monitor for and detect any unexpected creation of `ClusterRoleBindings` within the cluster.
