CVE-2026-10843 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
There is no fixed version for github.com/openshift/cloud-credential-operator/pkg/operator/credentialsrequest.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Execution with Unnecessary Privileges due to the Mint-mode process. An attacker can gain account-wide permissions and perform destructive actions beyond the intended cluster scope by compromising operator credentials.
Workaround
This vulnerability can be mitigated by migrating from Mint mode to STS mode, switching to Manual or Passthrough mode, restricting IAM policies on provisioned users with tag-based conditions, limiting S3 actions to specific resources, deploying AWS Service Control Policies to deny destructive actions from non-approved principals, and applying IAM Permission Boundaries to created users.
