REDHAT-BUG-2353998
First published: Fri Mar 21 2025(Updated: )
The OpenShift Lightspeed Service does not enforce authentication when logging metrics for API requests, including those made to non-existent endpoints. This allows unauthenticated users to send a large volume of requests to arbitrary, non-existent endpoints, causing excessive metric entries. As a result, this behavior can lead to high CPU and memory usage, degraded application performance, and potential denial of service conditions for monitoring and logging components.
