CVE-2024-22031

A vulnerability has been identified within Rancher where a user with the ability to create a project, on a certain cluster, can create a project with the same name as an existing project in a different cluster. This results in the user gaining access to the other project in the different cluster, resulting in a privilege escalation. This happens because the namespace used on the local cluster to store related resources (PRTBs and secrets) is the name of the project.

Summary		(es) Se ha identificado una vulnerabilidad en Rancher donde un usuario con la capacidad de crear un proyecto, en un determinado clúster, puede crear un proyecto con el mismo nombre que un proyecto existente en otro clúster. Esto permite que el usuario obtenga acceso al otro proyecto en el clúster diferente, provocando una escalada de privilegios. Esto ocurre porque el namespace utilizado en el clúster local para almacenar los recursos relacionados (PRTBs y secrets) es el nombre del proyecto.
