Lacuna crítica de segurança, usada em milhares de ambientes, é revelada no nginx-ingress [CVE-2023-5043: injeção de anotação causa execução arbitrária de comandos]

Se você usa o nginx como controlador de entrada e mantém configurações por meio de anotações, revise este alerta publicado no Grupo "Oficial" do Google do Kubernetess:, hoje, 25 de outubro de 2023:

Issue Details

A security issue was identified in ingress-nginx where the nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/configuration-snippet annotation on an Ingress object (in the networking.k8s.io or extensions API group) can be used to inject arbitrary commands, and obtain the credentials of the ingress-nginx controller. In the default configuration, that credential has access to all secrets in the cluster.

**This issue has been rated High **(CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L), and assigned CVE-2023-5043.

Affected Components and Configurations

This bug affects ingress-nginx. If you do not have ingress-nginx installed on your cluster, you are not affected. You can check this by running kubectl get po -n ingress-nginx.

If you are running the “chrooted” ingress-nginx controller introduced in v1.2.0 (gcr.io/k8s-staging-ingress-nginx/controller-chroot), command execution is possible but credential extraction is not, so the High severity does not apply.

Multi-tenant environments where non-admin users have permissions to create Ingress objects are most affected by this issue.

Affected Versions

<v1.9.0

Versions allowing mitigation

v1.9.0

Mitigation

Ingress Administrators should set the --enable-annotation-validation flag to enforce restrictions on the contents of ingress-nginx annotation fields.

Detection

If you find evidence that this vulnerability has been exploited, please contact [email protected]
