Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

An unauthorized user with key vault write access may cause an authorized client to issue arbitrary authenticated Google Cloud KMS API calls under the authorized user's identity, escalating database-level access into cloud key control and defeating client-side encryption.
