CVE-2022-37968: Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes cluster Connect Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?
An attacker who knows the randomly generated external DNS endpoint for an Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes cluster can exploit this vulnerability from the internet. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability, which affects the cluster connect feature of Azure Arc-enabled Kubernetes clusters, allows an unauthenticated user to elevate their privileges as cluster admins and potentially gain control over the Kubernetes cluster. Azure Stack Edge allows customers to deploy Kubernetes workloads on their devices via Azure Arc; therefore Azure Stack Edge devices are also vulnerable.
