A flaw was found in Kubernetes that allows attackers on adjacent networks to reach services exposed on localhost ports, previously thought to be unreachable. This flaw allows an attacker to gain privileges or access confidential information for any services listening on localhost ports that are not protected by authentication.
A flaw was found in the Kubernetes API server, where it allows an attacker to escalate their privileges from a compromised node. This flaw allows an attacker who can intercept requests on a compromised node, to redirect those requests, along with their credentials, to perform actions on other endpoints that trust those credentials (including other clusters), allowing for escalation of privileges. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity, and system availability.
The Kubelet component in versions 1.15.0-1.15.9, 1.16.0-1.16.6, and 1.17.0-1.17.2 has been found to be vulnerable to a denial of service attack via the kubelet API, including the unauthenticated HTTP read-only API typically served on port 10255, and the authenticated HTTPS API typically served on port 10250.
A denial of service vulnerability was found in the kube-apiserver, allowing authorized users sending malicious YAML payloads to cause kube-apiserver to consume excessive CPU cycles while parsing YAML.
Upstream Issue:
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/89535
The Kubernetes kube-controller-manager in versions v1.0-v1.17 is vulnerable to a credential leakage via error messages in mount failure logs and events for AzureFile and CephFS volumes.
A server side request forgery (SSRF) flaw was found in Kubernetes. The kube-controller-manager allows authorized users with the ability to create StorageClasses or certain Volume types to leak up to 500 bytes of arbitrary information from the master's host network. This can include secrets from the kube-apiserver through the unauthenticated localhost port (if enabled).
A flaw was found in Kubernetes, where the amount of disk space the /etc/hosts file can use is unconstrained . This flaw can allow attacker-controlled pods to cause a denial of service if they have permission to write to the node's /etc/hosts file.
A flaw was found in kubernetes. In Kubernetes, if the logging level is to at least 4, processing a malformed docker config file will result in the contents of the docker config file being leaked, which can include pull secrets or other registry credentials. This can occur with client tools like kubectl, or other components that use registry credentials in a docker config file.
A flaw was found in kubernetes. In Kubernetes, if the logging level is to at least 9, authorization and bearer tokens will be written to log files. This can occur both in API server logs and client tool output like kubectl. Previously, CVE-2019-11250 was assigned for the same issue for logging levels of at least 4.
A flaw was found in kubernetes. If the logging level is to at least 4, and Ceph RBD is configured as a storage provisioner, then Ceph RBD admin secrets can be written to logs. This occurs in kube-controller-manager's logs during provisioning of Ceph RBD persistent claims.
A denial of service vulnerability was found in the Kubernetes API server. This flaw allows a remote attacker to send repeated, crafted HTTP requests to exhaust available memory and cause a crash.
