Description

Impact In Cilium clusters with WireGuard enabled and traffic matching Layer 7 policies: • Traffic that should be WireGuard-encrypted is sent unencrypted between a node's Envoy proxy and pods on other nodes. • Traffic that should be WireGuard-encrypted is sent unencrypted between a node's DNS proxy and pods on other nodes. Patches This issue affects: • In native routing mode (`routingMode=native`): • Cilium v1.14 versions before v1.14.8 • Cilium v1.15 versions before v1.15.2 • In tunneling mode (`routingMode=tunnel`): • Cilium v1.14 versions before v1.14.4 • Cilium v1.14.4 if `encryption.wireguard.encapsulate` is set to `false` (default). This issue has been resolved in: • In native routing mode (`routingMode=native`): • Cilium v1.14.8 • Cilium v1.15.2 • In tunneling mode (`routingMode=tunnel`): • Cilium v1.14.4. NOTE `encryption.wireguard.encapsulate` must be set to `true`. Workarounds There is no workaround to this issue. Acknowledgements The Cilium community has worked together with members of Isovalent to prepare these mitigations.
