CVE-2026-52724

Kuma is a modern Envoy-based service mesh that can run on every cloud across both Kubernetes and VMs. Prior to 2.7.26, 2.9.16, 2.11.14, 2.12.11, and 2.13.7, Universal mode kuma-dp connections to an HTTPS control plane disable TLS peer verification when --ca-cert-file is not supplied and...

CVE-2026-52724

Kuma is an Envoy-based service mesh. In Universal mode , when kuma-dp connects to an HTTPS control plane without a CA certificate (--ca-cert-file unset and KUMA_CONTROL_PLANE_CA_CERT unset), TLS peer verification is disabled . An on-path attacker can intercept the dataplane authentication token, ...

EUVD-2026-57424

In Kong Mesh running in universal mode with a MeshIdentity whose SPIFFE ID path template derives from the dataplane's kuma.io/workload label, the XDS authenticator in kuma-cp validates that label only when the dataplane token is bound to a workload. Workload binding is optional, so a dataplane...

CVE-2026-18677

In Kong Mesh (universal mode), the XDS authenticator in kuma-cp validates the dataplane’s SPIFFE ID path template against the kuma.io/workload label only when the dataplane token is bound to a workload. Because workload binding is optional, a dataplane presenting a tags-bound token can register w...

CVE-2026-18677 Kong Mesh: a dataplane token without a workload binding can claim any workload's SPIFFE identity

In Kong Mesh running in universal mode with a MeshIdentity whose SPIFFE ID path template derives from the dataplane's kuma.io/workload label, the XDS authenticator in kuma-cp validates that label only when the dataplane token is bound to a workload. Workload binding is optional, so a dataplane...

GHSA-WVMP-6R4V-J6CV kuma-dp connects to control plane without verifying TLS certificate when no CA is configured

When kuma-dp is started against an HTTPS control plane and the operator did not pass a CA certificate, the data plane connects with TLS peer verification disabled. The dataplane authentication token is sent over this unverified connection Impact An on-path attacker can intercept the dataplane...
