CVE-2022-24768

CVSS v3.1

9.9

Critical

VectorAV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Argo CD versions 0.5.0 through 2.3.1 Argo CD versions 2.0.x and earlier
Description Argo CD is a declarative, GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes. All unpatched versions of Argo CD starting with 1.0.0 are vulnerable to an improper access control bug, allowing a malicious user to potentially escalate their privileges to admin-level. To perform exploits, an authorized Argo CD user must have push access to an Application's source git or Helm repository or sync and override access to an Application. Once a user has that access, different exploitation levels are possible depending on their other RBAC privileges.
Recommendations For Argo CD versions 2.3.1 and earlier, upgrade to version 2.3.2. For Argo CD versions 2.2.x, upgrade to version 2.2.8. For Argo CD versions 2.1.x, upgrade to version 2.1.14. As a temporary workaround, consider limiting who has push access to Application source repositories or sync + override access to Applications, and limit which repositories are available in projects where users have update access to Applications. Restrict access to the delete, get, or action access to Applications to minimize the risk of exploitation.
