AssertionConsumerServiceURL is a Java implementation for SAML Service Providers (org.keycloak.protocol.saml). Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS).

AssertionConsumerServiceURL allows XSS when sending a crafted SAML XML request.

''' We've discovered a privilege escalation issue in the OpenShift platform.

Conditions for the privilege escalation: - a user must be granted the ability to "update, patch" the "pods/ephemeralcontainers" subresource - by default, NEITHER common users NOR Service Accounts are granted this permission by the platform - with the above permission, a user is able to patch a running pod they've got access to and bypass SCC admission - this means, a user can create a "privileged" container, which allows them obtaining access to the pod's node resources

The step-by-step reproducer is described in https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPBUGS-7181.

Affected OpenShift Container Platform versions: 4.10 and newer. Affected component: kube-apiserver (and the platforms that use it)

The bug is located within the apiserver-library-go repository in the following module: https://github.com/openshift/apiserver-library-go/tree/master/pkg/securitycontextconstraints. We are yet to determine how to fix it.

The workaround is to remove the permissions to "update, patch" the "pods/ephemeralcontainers" subresource from any low-privileged users, if there are any that currently hold it. '''
