description
OpenShift Pipelines-as-Code does not ensure that a Repository resource creator is authorized to run pipelines. A namespace user with Repository and Secret create/delete access may obtain the pipeline service account's namespace-level permissions, including access to secrets and the ability to alter resources.
mitigation
Restrict Repository and Secret create/delete permissions to trusted users, and review pipeline service-account bindings to remove unnecessary edit-level access. Limit or disable Pipelines-as-Code in affected namespaces until a vendor update is available.
