Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-202106-29
==========================================
Severity: Low
Date : 2021-06-09
CVE-ID : CVE-2021-25737
Package : kube-apiserver
Type : insufficient validation
Remote : Yes
Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-1970
Summary
=======
The package kube-apiserver before version 1.21.1-1 is vulnerable to
insufficient validation.
Resolution
==========
Upgrade to 1.21.1-1.
# pacman -Syu "kube-apiserver>=1.21.1-1"
The problem has been fixed upstream in version 1.21.1.
Workaround
==========
To mitigate this vulnerability without upgrading kube-apiserver, you
can create a validating admission webhook that prevents EndpointSlices
with endpoint addresses in the 127.0.0.0/8 and 169.254.0.0/16 ranges.
If you have an existing admission policy mechanism (like OPA
Gatekeeper) you can create a policy that enforces this restriction.
Description
===========
A security issue was discovered in kube-apiserver before version 1.21.1
where a user may be able to redirect pod traffic to private networks on
a node. Kubernetes already prevents creation of Endpoint IPs in the
localhost or link-local range, but the same validation was not
performed on EndpointSlice IPs.
Impact
======
A user could redirect pod traffic to private networks on a node.
