Prior to version 29.3.1, a security vulnerability has been detected that allows plugins privilege validation to be bypassed during docker plugin install. Due to an error in the daemon's privilege comparison logic, the daemon may incorrectly accept a privilege set that differs from the one approved by the user. Plugins that request exactly one privilege are also affected, because no comparison is performed at all. This issue has been patched in version 29.3.1.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `engine < 29.3.1`\n\n## Remediation\n\nUpgrade past the affected range:\n\n- `engine 29.3.1`\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **RHSA-2026:22347** · Red Hat · fixed in: Multicluster Global Hub 1.4.5 · released 2026-06-01 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:22347)\n- **RHSA-2026:23345** · Red Hat · fixed in: Multicluster Global Hub 1.6.5 · released 2026-06-04 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:23345)\n- **RHSA-2026:21769** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat multicluster global hub 1.5.3 · released 2026-05-28 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:21769)\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Important · affected: Multicluster Engine for Kubernetes, Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4 · no fix planned: Multicluster Engine for Kubernetes · updated 2026-09-21 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-33997.json)","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":37,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":37.4,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
