CVE-2026-10090 is a critical privilege escalation vulnerability in Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (ACM) 2.11. A user with namespace-scoped 'edit' privileges can create Channel and Subscription resources that the app-subscription controller applies with elevated cluster-level authority. This flaw allows inclusion of cluster-scoped resources, such as ClusterRoleBindings granting cluster-admin privileges, bypassing intended role restrictions. The vulnerability contradicts ACM documentation and can lead to full cluster-admin access.

A flaw was found in the Application Subscription controller (multicluster-operators-subscription) of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (ACM). A user with namespace-scoped "edit" privileges in an ACM hub namespace can create a Channel resource pointing to a Helm repository they control and a Subscription resource referencing it. The app-subscription controller fetches and applies the Helm chart contents with its own elevated authority, without verifying whether the subscription creator holds the "open-cluster-management:subscription-admin" role and without restricting applied resources to the subscription namespace. This allows the attacker to include cluster-scoped resources in the Helm chart, such as a ClusterRoleBinding granting the attacker's ServiceAccount the "cluster-admin" ClusterRole. Successful exploitation results in full cluster-admin privilege escalation. This contradicts the ACM documentation which states that non-subscription-admin users should have resources deployed into the subscription namespace only.
