OpenShift GitOps Operator Permissive Label Enables ClusterWide Rogue PromRules
CVE-2024-13484 Published on January 28, 2025

Openshift-gitops-operator-container: namespace isolation break
A flaw was found in openshift-gitops-operator-container. The openshift.io/cluster-monitoring label is applied to all namespaces that deploy an ArgoCD CR instance, allowing the namespace to create a rogue PrometheusRule. This issue can have adverse effects on the platform monitoring stack, as the rule is rolled out cluster-wide when the label is applied.
