Vulnerability CVE-2020-8828


Published: 2020-04-08

Description:
As of v1.5.0, the default admin password is set to the argocd-server pod name. For insiders with access to the cluster or logs, this issue could be abused for privilege escalation, as Argo has privileged roles. A malicious insider is the most realistic threat, but pod names are not meant to be kept secret and could wind up just about anywhere.

Type:

CWE-269

(Improper Privilege Management)
