AI-suggested

A fix is available in Fission version 1.24.0. This update implements an admission denylist that rejects Environment CRD pod specs containing hostNetwork, hostPID, hostIPC, privileged containers, and other dangerous settings. It also sanitizes these fields during pod spec merging to prevent bypass. Users should upgrade to v1.24.0 or later to mitigate this vulnerability. Prior to upgrading, restricting create/update RBAC permissions on environments.fission.io can reduce risk.

Description

Fission's Environment Custom Resource Definition (CRD) allowed users with create/update permissions to specify pod specifications that could enable privileged pods with host network, host PID, and other sensitive capabilities. This flaw enabled potential node escape and full node compromise. The vulnerability was fixed in Fission version 1.24.0 by adding admission denylist checks and sanitizing pod specs during merge. Prior to this fix, Kubernetes Pod Security Admission did not prevent these privileged pod creations due to missing enforcement labels on relevant namespaces.
