CVE-2018-2475

HIGH
8.5NVD

Summary

generated automatically from NVD data

In Gardener, the Kubernetes apiserver of a managed shoot cluster runs in its corresponding seed cluster, and missing network isolation lets that apiserver reach services and endpoints on the seed's private network. Combined with other minor Kubernetes security issues, this could theoretically allow compromise of other shoot or seed clusters in the Gardener context. The flaw has a CVSS v3.0 score of 8.5 (HIGH), and the description says it was fixed in Gardener release 0.12.4.

NVD description

Following the Gardener architecture, the Kubernetes apiserver of a Gardener managed shoot cluster resides in the corresponding seed cluster. Due to missing network isolation a shoot's apiserver can access services/endpoints in the private network of its corresponding seed cluster. Combined with other minor Kubernetes security issues, the missing network isolation theoretically can lead to compromise other shoot or seed clusters in the "Gardener" context. The issue is rated high due to the high impact of a potential exploitation in "Gardener" context. This was fixed in Gardener release 0.12.4.
