What is CVE-2026-93539?

CVE-2026-93539 is a medium-severity missing authorization vulnerability in SUSE Rancher, published on 28 Sep 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

A vulnerability was discovered in Fleet's Git webhook receiver (the gitjob webhook service). When a webhook secret is not configured, incoming webhook requests are accepted without verification, and processing a request can change the spec.pollingInterval field of a matching GitRepo resource in any namespace. A caller with network access to the webhook service and no Kubernetes credentials can therefore alter GitRepo configuration outside

the namespaces they are authorized for.  This only affects SUSE Rancher Fleet 0.16 before 0.16.2, older versions are not affected.

Weakness: CWE-306
