Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization in the process that creates Kubernetes Role bindings. An attacker can access sensitive information by executing GET requests in affected Pods using their Service Account to retrieve any Secret from the same namespace. This is only exploitable if Apache Kafka Connect or MirrorMaker 2 operands are deployed without at least one of the required TLS or authentication configurations.
