Bad Pods A collection of manifests that create pods with different elevated privileges. Quickly demonstrate the impact of allowing security sensitive pod attributes like hostNetwork, hostPID, hostPath, hostIPC, and privileged. For additional background, see our blog post: Bad Pods: Kubernetes Pod...

Improper Privilege Management

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Privilege Management due to improper validation of user-supplied pod specifications in the Environment process. An attacker can gain elevated privileges and potentially escape the node by specifying dangerous fields such as...

CVE-2026-50564 Fission Environment CRD podspec passthrough enables hostPID/hostNetwork/privileged pods, node escape

Fission is an open-source, Kubernetes-native serverless framework that simplifies the deployment of functions and applications on Kubernetes. Prior to version 1.24.0, Fission's Environment CRD exposes spec.runtime.podSpec and spec.builder.podSpec, which are merged into the Kubernetes pod specs fo...

Argo Workflows CVE-2026-42296 describes a bypass for templateReferencing: Strict that lets users with create Workflow access obtain host network access, switch service accounts, override pod security context, add tolerations to schedule on control-plane nodes, or enable SA token mounting. Root ca...

GHSA-9FJ4-3849-RV9G OpenKruise PodProbeMarker is Vulnerable to SSRF via Unrestricted Host Field

Summary PodProbeMarker allows defining custom probes with TCPSocket or HTTPGet handlers. The webhook validation does not restrict the Host field in these probe configurations. Since kruise-daemon runs with hostNetwork=true, it executes probes from the node network namespace. An attacker with...

CVE-2026-24005: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)

Kruise provides automated management of large-scale applications on Kubernetes. Prior to versions 1.8.3 and 1.7.5, PodProbeMarker allows defining custom probes with TCPSocket or HTTPGet handlers. The webhook validation does not restrict the Host field in these probe configurations. Since...

GHSA-JQMC-79GX-7G8P Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource in CRI-O

An incorrect sysctls validation vulnerability was found in CRI-O 1.18 and earlier. The sysctls from the list of "safe" sysctls specified for the cluster will be applied to the host if an attacker is able to create a pod with a hostIPC and hostNetwork kernel namespace...

CVE-2021-20238

It was found in OpenShift Container Platform 4 that ignition config, served by the Machine Config Server, can be accessed externally from clusters without authentication. The MCS endpoint port 22623 provides ignition configuration used for bootstrapping Nodes and can include some sensitive data,...

Kubernetes: Man in the middle leading to root privilege escalation using hostNetwork=true (CAP_NET_RAW considered harmful)

Summary: CAPNETRAW capability is still included by default in K8S, leading to yet another attack. An attacker gaining access to a hostNetwork=true container with CAPNETRAW capability can listen to all the traffic going through the host and inject arbitrary traffic, allowing to tamper with most...

CVE-2019-10200

A flaw was discovered in OpenShift Container Platform 4 where, by default, users with access to create pods also have the ability to schedule workloads on master nodes. Pods with permission to access the host network, running on master nodes, can retrieve security credentials for the master AWS I...
