Overview

github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics is a simple service that listens to the Kubernetes API server and generates metrics about the state of the objects.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. An experimental feature that enabled annotations to be exposed as metrics. By default, kube-state-metrics metrics only expose metadata about Secrets. Default kubectl behavior and this new feature can cause the entire secret content to end up in metric labels and therefore exposing the secret content in metrics.
