CVE-2025-0754: Envoyproxy: openshift service mesh 2.6.3 and 2.5.6 envoy header handling allows log injection and potential spoofing
First published: Tue Jan 21 2025(Updated: )
The vulnerability arises due to insufficient sanitization of HTTP headers within the OpenShift Service Mesh, specifically allowing log injection attacks via the x-forwarded-for header. This could result in misleading log entries, potential XSS attacks, and misattribution of request sources. However, the impact is limited since it primarily affects logging and does not directly lead to remote code execution or privilege escalation.
