CVE-2025-47282  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-268  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade github.com/gardener/external-dns-management/pkg/controller/provider/google to version 0.23.6 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Privilege Chaining via the handling of DNS secrets. An attacker can escalate privileges by supplying malicious Google credentials.

Note: Upgrading to 1.23.6 will fix the vulnerability in most cases, but not when the extension gardener-extension-shoot-dns-service was used to deploy the affected seeds. In this case, the deployment will still be vulnerable.
