Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Rancher versions from 2.7.0 before 2.7.14 and from 2.8.0 before 2.8.5 are affected when RKE1 clusters have secrets encryption configuration enabled. Cluster owners, cluster members and project members who can view the cluster object can read the secrets encryption config in plain text in the applied spec, and an unauthorized user could gain access to it. Upgrade to Rancher 2.7.14 or 2.8.5; the source lists no workarounds.
