Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Privilege escalation (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1002105)
CWE-ID: CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain elevated privileges on the target system.
The weakness exists due to an error when handling proxy requests. With a specially crafted request, users that are authorized to establish a connection through the Kubernetes API server to a backend server can then send arbitrary requests over the same connection directly to that backend, authenticated with the Kubernetes API server’s TLS credentials used to establish the backend connection.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
