A flaw was found in fence agents that rely on SSH/Telnet. This
vulnerability can allow a Remote Code Execution (RCE) primitive by
supplying an arbitrary command to execute in the --ssh-path/–telnet-path
arguments. A low-privilege user, for example, a user with developer access,
can create a specially crafted FenceAgentsRemediation for a fence agent
supportingΒ  --ssh-path/–telnet-path arguments to execute arbitrary
commands on the operator’s pod. This RCE leads to a privilege escalation,
first as the service account running the operator, then to another service
account with cluster-admin privileges.
