CVE-2025-6017: Rhacm: users with clusterreader role can see credentials from managed-clusters
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.14% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: github.com/open-cluster-management-io/ocm ocm 0.16.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to github.com/open-cluster-management-io/ocm ocm 0.16.0 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
A flaw was found in Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management through versions 2.10, before 2.10.7, 2.11, before 2.11.4, and 2.12, before 2.12.4. This vulnerability allows an unprivileged user to view confidential managed cluster credentials through the UI. This information should only be accessible to authorized users and may result in the loss of confidentiality of administrative information, which could be leaked to unauthorized actors.
