CVE-2019-12494
In Gardener before 0.20.0, incorrect access control in seed clusters allows information disclosure by sending HTTP GET requests from one's own shoot clusters to foreign shoot clusters.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.89%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In Gardener before 0.20.0, incorrect access control in seed clusters allows information disclosure by sending HTTP GET requests from one's own shoot clusters to foreign shoot clusters. This occurs because traffic from shoot to seed via the VPN endpoint is not blocked.
