Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Authorization via the Envoy admin socket when L7 functionality is enabled. An attacker can access sensitive information or disrupt cluster operations by connecting to the world-accessible socket and invoking administrative endpoints. This is only exploitable if the attacker has local access to the cluster node.
