Technical description

A flaw was found in the `cluster-proxy-addon` component of Multicluster Engine for Kubernetes. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker, who can access the user-facing route, to bypass authentication and authorization checks. By manipulating URL path segments, the attacker can proxy requests to arbitrary services across any managed cluster. This enables unauthorized access to internal services that would otherwise be protected, potentially leading to information disclosure or further compromise of the cluster environment.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
