Kyverno before 1.19.2 Cross-Namespace Resource Read via generate.clone

Published Nov 5, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 8.3 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
Kyverno before 1.19.2 contains a missing authorization vulnerability that allows namespaced Policy authors to read resources in other namespaces by templating generate.clone or cloneList namespace values. Attackers can annotate a triggering ConfigMap so the background-controller copies a victim namespace's sensitive ConfigMap into the attacker's namespace, enabling cross-tenant data disclosure.
