**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** ClusterLabs Hawk versions 2.3.0 through 2.3.0-15 **Description** The issue in ClusterLabs Hawk is related to the `hawk invoke` binary, which is intended to be used as a setuid program, allowing the `hacluster` user to invoke certain commands as root. However, this user can execute an interactive shell that isn't limited to the commands specified in `hawk invoke`, allowing escalation to root. The vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands as the root user. **Recommendations** For ClusterLabs Hawk versions 2.3.0 through 2.3.0-15, consider disabling the `hawk invoke` binary until a patch is available to prevent the `hacluster` user from invoking commands as root and to minimize the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the `hawk invoke` binary to prevent unauthorized use. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
