Security Advisories: GSA_kwCzR0hTQS0yNG01LXI2aHYtY2NncM4AA2C5

Specific Cilium configurations vulnerable to DoS via Kubernetes annotations

Impact

In Cilium clusters where Cilium's Layer 7 proxy has been disabled, creating workloads with

causes the Cilium agent to segfault on the node to which the workload is assigned.

Existing traffic on the affected node will continue to flow, but the Cilium agent on the node will not able to process changes to workloads running on the node. This will also prevent workloads from being able to start on the affected node. The denial of service will be limited to the node on which the workload is scheduled, however an attacker may be able to schedule workloads on the node of their choosing, which could lead to targeted attacks.

Patches

Pull request with fix

This issue affects:

Cilium <= v1.14.1
