• Go github.com/kyverno/kyverno: < 1.9.5 → fixed in 1.9.5
Description
Summary
Insecure 3DES ciphers are used which may lead to exploitation of the Sweet32 vulnerability. Specifically, the ciphers TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA (secp256r1) and TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA (rsa 2048) are allowed. See CVE-2016-2183. This is fixed in Kyverno v1.9.5 and v1.10.0 and no known users have been affected.
Details
The ciphers in affected versions can be read using the following command which uses `nmap`:
```sh
$ kubectl exec -it mypod -n kyverno sh
kubectl exec [POD] [COMMAND] is DEPRECATED and will be removed in a future version. Use kubectl exec [POD] -- [COMMAND] instead.
nmap -sV --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p 443 kyverno-cleanup-controller or
nmap -sV --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p 443 kyverno-svc
