rancher: Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity
CVE-2024-58267 is a high-severity insufficient verification of data authenticity vulnerability in rancher from SUSE, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.0 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, but only if a user takes part, for example by opening a link or file. The record lists versions 2.12.2, 2.11.6, 2.10.10 as the first without the flaw, so updating rancher to one of those releases or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.24% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update rancher to 2.12.2 or 2.11.6 or 2.10.10 or 2.9.12, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
- Read the advisory on github.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Because the attack needs a user to take part, warn users about unexpected links and files related to this product until it is patched.
