CVE-2022-45933
Critical 9.8
In plain English
A critical-severity missing authentication in the github.com/benc-uk/kubeview package (Go). Proof-of-concept exploit code is public. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 51.7% (higher than 99% of all known vulnerabilities). Ready-made attack tooling exists: Nuclei.
Official description
KubeView through 0.1.31 allows attackers to obtain control of a Kubernetes cluster because api/scrape/kube-system does not require authentication, and retrieves certificate files that can be used for authentication as kube-admin. NOTE: the vendor's position is that KubeView was a "fun side project and a learning exercise," and not "very secure."
