CriticalMetricsAV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Kyverno versions v1.9.0 through v1.12.7
Description
A flaw exists in the policy exception handling when a policy is set to enforce mode and combined with two PolicyExceptions. The system incorrectly allows a less restrictive exception to take precedence over a stricter one. An attacker can bypass policy enforcement, such as restrictions on hostPath volumes, by crafting a resource name that matches the broader exception pattern (e.g.,
*ingress*).Recommendations
Update Kyverno to version v1.13.0.
