Descriptions

Helm is a tool for managing Charts. Charts are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources. When either the Helm client or SDK is used to save a chart whose name within the `Chart.yaml` file includes a relative path change, the chart would be saved outside its expected directory based on the changes in the relative path. The validation and linting did not detect the path changes in the name. This issue has been resolved in Helm v3.14.1. Users unable to upgrade should check all charts used by Helm for path changes in their name as found in the `Chart.yaml` file. This includes dependencies.

Helm es una herramienta para gestionar gráficos. Los gráficos son paquetes de recursos de Kubernetes preconfigurados. Cuando se utiliza el cliente Helm o el SDK para guardar un gráfico cuyo nombre dentro del archivo `Chart.yaml` incluye un cambio de ruta relativa, el gráfico se guardará fuera de su directorio esperado en función de los cambios en la ruta relativa. La validación y el linting no detectaron los cambios de ruta en el nombre. Este problema se resolvió en Helm v3.14.1. Los usuarios que no puedan actualizar deben verificar todos los gráficos utilizados por Helm en busca de cambios de ruta en su nombre, como se encuentra en el archivo `Chart.yaml`. Esto incluye dependencias.

A path traversal vulnerability was found in Helm when it saved a chart including download time. When either the Helm client or SDK is used to save a chart whose name is within the Chart.yaml file and includes a relative path change, the chart would be saved outside its expected directory based on the changes in the relative path. The validation and linting did not detect the path changes in the name.

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform release 4.15.3 is now available with updates to packages and images that fix several bugs and add enhancements. Issues addressed include a traversal vulnerability.
