CVE-2026-127073: OpsTree BuildPiper before 2.7.0 Privilege Escalation via Additional Manifest
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 37/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: OpsTree Solutions BuildPiper 2.7.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to OpsTree Solutions BuildPiper 2.7.0 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
OpsTree BuildPiper before 2.7.0 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability that allows project users to gain Kubernetes cluster-admin rights by submitting unrestricted manifests through the Additional Manifest feature. Attackers can deploy a ClusterRoleBinding binding a service account to cluster-admin, which the pipeline applies with cluster-wide credentials, granting control over all workloads and secrets.

Root cause
To simplify setup, a service account is granted broad, cluster-wide permissions. The principle of least privilege is skipped during installation.
