NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kubernetes1.24-client package and not the kubernetes1.24-client package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.3 relevant fixed versions and status.

A security issue was discovered in Kubernetes where users may be able to launch containers that bypass the mountable secrets policy enforced by the ServiceAccount admission plugin when using containers, init containers, and ephemeral containers with the envFrom field populated. The policy ensures pods running with a service account may only reference secrets specified in the service account’s secrets field. Kubernetes clusters are only affected if the ServiceAccount admission plugin and the kubernetes.io/enforce-mountable-secrets annotation are used together with containers, init containers, and ephemeral containers with the envFrom field populated.
