Ken Gaillot discovered a vulnerability in the Pacemaker cluster resource manager: If ACLs were configured for users in the 'haclient’group, the ACL restrictions could be bypassed via unrestricted IPC communication, resulting in cluster-wide arbitrary code execution with root privileges.

If the ‘enable-acl’ cluster option isn’t enabled, members of the’haclient’ group can modify Pacemaker’s Cluster Information Base without restriction, which already gives them these capabilities, so there is no additional exposure in such a setup.
