in on-premises ACM/MCE hub deployments.

A valid local JWT is embedded as a plaintext query parameter in InfraEnvStatus.ISODownloadURL and is readable by any user who has get rights on an InfraEnv object in their own namespace.\n\nThe affected components ship as part of Multicluster Engine (MCE). The Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management (ACM) deployments that include MCE are equally affected.\nThis issue does not affect the hosted SaaS offering (console.redhat.com), which uses a different authentication mode.\n\nSuccessful exploitation gives the attacker the kubeadmin password and kubeconfig for any OpenShift cluster provisioned through the affected hub, granting unrestricted root-level administrative access to those spoke clusters."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "Una vulnerabilidad en la API REST de assisted-service, un componente opcional de Assisted Installer (assisted-service) en Multicluster Engine (MCE), permite a un usuario autenticado con privilegios m\u00ednimos de \u00e1mbito de namespace obtener credenciales administrativas para cl\u00fasteres arbitrarios aprovisionados a trav\u00e9s del hub.\n\nEl endpoint de descarga de credenciales (GET /v2/clusters/{cluster_id}/credentials, que devuelve la contrase\u00f1a de kubeadmin) y el endpoint de descarga de kubeconfig est\u00e1n operativos en modo AUTH_TYPE=local, el \u00fanico modo de autenticaci\u00f3n disponible en despliegues de hub ACM/MCE on-premises.
