Description
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.
Affected configurations
• kubernetes kubernetes (<= 1.24.14)
• kubernetes kubernetes (>= 1.25.0 <= 1.25.10)
• kubernetes kubernetes (>= 1.26.0 <= 1.26.5)
• kubernetes kubernetes (>= 1.27.0 <= 1.27.2)
