Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-24842 exists.\n\nAffected product: minio. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24842/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24842/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-24842","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24842/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-24842","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2j69-jjmg-534q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MinIO object storage","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Non-admin users can create service accounts for root users to escalate privileges to root access in MinIO object storage.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"minio","vendor":"minio"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"MinIO is a High Performance Object Storage released under GNU Affero General Public License v3.0. A security issue was found where an non-admin user is able to create service accounts for root or other admin users and then is able to assume their access policies via the generated credentials. This in turn allows the user to escalate privilege to that of the root user. This vulnerability has been resolved in pull request #14729 and is included in `RELEASE.2022-04-12T06-55-35Z`. Users unable to upgrade may workaround this issue by explicitly adding a `admin:CreateServiceAccount` deny policy, however, this, in turn, denies the user the ability to create their own service accounts as well.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Improper Privilege Management in MinIO","id":"CVE-2022-24842","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Path Traversal in github.com/flipped-aurora/gin-vue-admin","id":"CVE-2022-24843"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Improper Authorization in github.com/fleetdm/fleet","id":"CVE-2022-24841"},"products":["minio"],"published":"2022-04-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MinIO Security Feature Bypass","id":"CVE-2023-28434","kev_date_added":"2023-09-19","published":"2023-03-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"MinIO Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2023-28432","kev_date_added":"2023-04-21","published":"2023-03-22"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Authentication bypass MinIO Admin API","id":"CVE-2020-11012","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-23"},{"cvss_score":9.2,"headline":"MinIO: JWT Algorithm Confusion in OIDC Authentication","id":"CVE-2026-33322","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-24"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"MinIO: LDAP login brute-force via user enumeration and missing rate limit","id":"CVE-2026-33419","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-24"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MinIO has an Unauthenticated Object Write via Missing Signature Verification in Unsigned-Trailer Uploads","id":"CVE-2026-40344","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MinIO has an Unauthenticated Object Write via Query-String Credential Signature Bypass in Unsigned-Trailer Uploads","id":"CVE-2026-41145","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-22","vendors":["minio"]},"summary":"Non-admin users can create service accounts for root users to escalate privileges to root access in MinIO object storage.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24842/"}
