Descriptions

CNCF Envoy through 1.13.0 has incorrect Access Control when using SDS with Combined Validation Context. Using the same secret (e.g. trusted CA) across many resources together with the combined validation context could lead to the “static” part of the validation context to be not applied, even though it was visible in the active config dump.

CNCF Envoy versiones hasta 1.13.0, presenta un Control de Acceso incorrecto cuando se usa SDS con Contexto de Comprobación Combinada. Al utilizar el mismo secreto (por ejemplo, CA de confianza) a través de muchos recursos junto con el contexto de comprobación combinado podría conllevar a que la parte “static” del contexto de comprobación no sea aplicada, aún y cuando fuera visible en el volcado de la configuración activa.

An access control bypass vulnerability was found in envoy. When the same TLS secret is used across multiple resources, the client's data, such as the subject alternative name or hash, is not validated. This flaw could lead to a possible bypass of security restrictions.
