Descriptions

Cilium is a networking, observability, and security solution with an eBPF-based dataplane. Prior to versions 1.13.13, 1.14.8, and 1.15.2, in Cilium clusters with IPsec enabled and traffic matching Layer 7 policies, IPsec-eligible traffic between a node's Envoy proxy and pods on other nodes is sent unencrypted and IPsec-eligible traffic between a node's DNS proxy and pods on other nodes is sent unencrypted. This issue has been resolved in Cilium 1.15.2, 1.14.8, and 1.13.13. There is no known workaround for this issue.

Cilium es una solución de redes, observabilidad y seguridad con un plano de datos basado en eBPF. Antes de las versiones 1.13.13, 1.14.8 y 1.15.2, en los clústeres de Cilium con IPsec habilitado y el tráfico que coincide con las políticas de Capa 7, el tráfico elegible para IPsec entre el proxy Envoy de un nodo y los pods en otros nodos se envía sin cifrar y es elegible para IPsec. El tráfico entre el proxy DNS de un nodo y los pods de otros nodos se envía sin cifrar. Este problema se resolvió en Cilium 1.15.2, 1.14.8 y 1.13.13. No se conoce ningún workaround para este problema.
