Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Restriction Bypass. When a gateway is using the AUTO_PASSTHROUGH routing configuration, attackers can bypass authorization checks and access unexpected services in the cluster.

This vulnerability only impacts usage of the AUTO_PASSTHROUGH Gateway type, which is typically only used in multi-network multi-cluster deployments. See the Istio advisory for more information on triaging the impact of this vulnerability.
