Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insecure Inherited Permissions through the ClusterAdmissionPolicyGroup resource, which can be configured as part of a context-aware policy that allows a low-privileged user to read information on resources that are available to the ServiceAccount but not them. If the ServiceAccount has higher privileges than them this will expose unintended resources according to its configured access.
