Description

(Externally Controlled Reference to a Resource in Another Sphere), (Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key) vulnerability in Apache Camel K. Authorized users in a Kubernetes namespace can create a Build resource, controlling the Pod generation in a namespace of their choice, including the operator namespace.

This issue affects Apache Camel K: from 2.0.0 before 2.8.1, from 2.9.0 before 2.9.2, from 2.10.0 before 2.10.1.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.

Weaknesses

Externally Controlled Reference to a Resource in Another Sphere

The product uses an externally controlled name or reference that resolves to a resource that is outside of the intended control sphere. Learn more on MITRE.

Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key

The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data. Learn more on MITRE.
