Descriptions
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. Versions starting with 0.8.0 and 0.5.0 contain limited versions of this issue. 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. A patch for this vulnerability has been released in Argo CD versions 2.3.2, 2.2.8, and 2.1.14. Some mitigation measures are available but do not serve as a substitute for upgrading. To avoid privilege escalation, limit 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. To avoid unauthorized resource inspection/tampering, limit who has `delete`, `get`, or `action` access to Applications.
Argo CD es una herramienta de entrega continua GitOps para Kubernetes. Todas las versiones no parcheadas de Argo CD a partir de la 1.0.0, son vulnerables a un bug de control de acceso inapropiado, que permite a un usuario malicioso escalar potencialmente sus privilegios a nivel de administrador. Las versiones a partir de 0.8.0 y 0.5.0, contienen versiones limitadas de este problema. Para llevar a cabo las explotaciones, un usuario autorizado de Argo CD debe presentar acceso push al repositorio git o Helm de una aplicación o acceso "sync" y "override" a una aplicación. Una vez que un usuario presenta ese acceso, son posibles diferentes niveles de explotación dependiendo de sus otros privilegios RBAC. Ha sido publicado un parche para esta vulnerabilidad en versiones 2.3.2, 2.2.8 y 2.1.14 de Argo CD. Se presentan algunas medidas de mitigación, pero no sirven para sustituir la actualización. Para evitar una escalada de privilegios, limite quién presente acceso push a los repositorios de origen de las aplicaciones o el acceso "sync" + "override" a las aplicaciones; y limite qué repositorios están disponibles en los proyectos donde los usuarios presenten acceso "update" a las aplicaciones. Para evitar la inspección/manipulación no autorizada de los recursos, limite quién presente acceso a "delete", "getr" o "action" en las aplicaciones
