referenced in the RHSA-2023:0772 advisory.
- Users authorized to list or watch one type of namespaced custom resource cluster-wide can read custom
resources of a different type in the same API group without authorization. Clusters are impacted by this
vulnerability if all of the following are true: 1. There are 2+ CustomResourceDefinitions sharing the same
API group 2. Users have cluster-wide list or watch authorization on one of those custom resources. 3. The
same users are not authorized to read another custom resource in the same API group. (CVE-2022-3162)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
