Prior to version 2.4.4, a privileged operator could use the identity group subsystem to add a root policy to a group identity group, escalating their or another user&#8217;s permissions in the system. Specifically this is an issue when: an operator in the root namespace has access to identity\/groups endpoints and an operator does not have policy access. Otherwise, an operator with policy access could create or modify an existing policy to grant root-equivalent permissions through the sudo capability. This issue has been patched in version 2.4.4.<\/p>\n<p>Severity: 0.0 | NA<\/p>\n<p>Visit the link for more details, such as CVSS details, affected products, timeline, and more&#8230;\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CVE ID : CVE-2025-64761 Published : Nov. 25, 2025, 12:01 a.m. | 1\u00a0hour, 21\u00a0minutes ago Description : OpenBao is an open source identity-based secrets management system.
