AI-suggested
- Upgrade Yoke to version 0.19.0 or later as soon as a patched release is available to eliminate the vulnerability.
- Until an upgrade is possible, restrict create and update permissions in Kubernetes to trusted users only, minimizing the risk of malicious annotation injection.
- Implement strict network policies to limit the ATC controller's ability to download WASM modules from untrusted or external URLs.
- Monitor Kubernetes audit logs for suspicious use of the overrides.yoke.cd/flight annotation or unusual creation of resources.
- Employ runtime security tools to detect anomalous behavior in the ATC controller and Kubernetes API server.
- Conduct regular security reviews of infrastructure-as-code configurations and annotations to detect potential injection points.
- Educate DevOps and security teams about the risks of code injection in IaC tools and enforce best practices for annotation usage and permissions management.
Description
Yoke is a Helm-inspired infrastructure-as-code (IaC) package deployer. In 0.19.0 and earlier, a vulnerability exists in the Air Traffic Controller (ATC) component of Yoke. It allows users with CR create/update permissions to execute arbitrary WASM code in the ATC controller context by injecting a malicious URL through the overrides.yoke.cd/flight annotation. The ATC controller downloads and executes the WASM module without proper URL validation, enabling attackers to create arbitrary Kubernetes resources or potentially escalate privileges to cluster-admin level.
