| CVE | Summary | Source | Max CVSS | EPSS % | Published | Updated |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2026-4342 | A security issue was discovered in ingress-nginx where a combination of Ingress annotations can be used to inject configuration into nginx. This can lead to arbitrary code execution in the context of the ingress-nginx controller, and disclosure of Secrets accessible to the controller. (Note that in the default installation, the controller can access all Secrets cluster-wide.) | [email protected] | 8.8 | 0.06% | 2026-03-19 | 2026-05-19 |
| CVE-2026-3288 | A security issue was discovered in ingress-nginx where the `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target` Ingress annotation can be used to inject configuration into nginx.

| CVE-2021-25736 | Kube-proxy on Windows can unintentionally forward traffic to local processes listening on the same port (“spec.ports[*].port”) as a LoadBalancer Service when the LoadBalancer controller does not set the “status.loadBalancer.ingress[].ip” field. Clusters where the LoadBalancer controller sets the “status.loadBalancer.ingress[].ip” field are unaffected. | [email protected] | 5.8 | 0.12% | 2023-10-30 | 2025-06-12 |

| CVE-2023-1260 | An authentication bypass vulnerability was discovered in kube-apiserver. This issue could allow a remote, authenticated attacker who has been given permissions "update, patch" the "pods/ephemeralcontainers" subresource beyond what the default is. They would then need to create a new pod or patch one that they already have access to. This might allow evasion of SCC admission restrictions, thereby gaining control of a privileged pod. | [email protected] | 8.0 | 0.06% | 2023-09-24 | 2024-11-21 |

| CVE-2023-2728 | Users may be able to launch containers that bypass the mountable secrets policy enforced by the ServiceAccount admission plugin when using ephemeral containers. 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 ephemeral containers. | [email protected] | 6.5 | 4.85% | 2023-07-03 | 2025-02-13 |
| CVE-2023-2727 | Users may be able to launch containers using images that are restricted by ImagePolicyWebhook when using ephemeral containers. Kubernetes clusters are only affected if the ImagePolicyWebhook admission plugin is used together with ephemeral containers. | [email protected] | 6.5 | 0.17% | 2023-07-03 | 2025-02-13 |
| CVE-2023-2431 | A security issue was discovered in Kubelet that allows pods to bypass the seccomp profile enforcement. Pods that use localhost type for seccomp profile but specify an empty profile field, are affected by this issue. In this scenario, this vulnerability allows the pod to run in unconfined (seccomp disabled) mode. This bug affects Kubelet. | [email protected] | 3.4 | 0.01% | 2023-06-16 | 2024-12-12 |
