CVE-2026-115356 Details
Description
OpenBao before 2.6.4 and 2.7.x before 2.7.1 does not verify, when renewing a token issued by the Kubernetes Auth method, that the service account token originally used to authenticate is still valid. An authenticated attacker can keep renewing such tokens to persist access after the Kubernetes service account has been deleted.
A vulnerability exists in OpenBao versions prior to 2.6.4 and 2.7.0 prior to 2.7.1, where the Kubernetes Auth method fails to validate the authenticity of service account tokens during the token renewal process. This oversight allows an authenticated attacker to continuously renew tokens, maintaining access even after the original Kubernetes service account has been deleted.
Users can upgrade to OpenBao version 2.7.1 or 2.6.4 to address this vulnerability.
