AI-suggested
Red Hat recommends applying NetworkPolicy egress restrictions to the openshift-console namespace to restrict the console pod's outbound network connectivity to only required endpoints such as the Kubernetes API server, OAuth server, and monitoring services. A blanket default-deny egress policy is not advised as it will break console functionality. Additionally, monitor console access logs for unusual POST requests to /api/dev-console/webhooks/ paths containing non-standard hostName values that point to internal addresses or contain query separators.
Description
An authenticated SSRF flaw was found in the OpenShift Console Dev Console webhook helpers. User-supplied target URLs are fetched server-side without validation, with path neutralization enabling arbitrary endpoint targeting and full response reflection from the console pod's privileged network position.
