Helm is a package manager for Charts for Kubernetes. From 4.0.0 to 4.1.3, Helm will install plugins missing provenance (.prov file) when signature verification is required. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.1.4.
AnalysisAI
Helm 4.0.0 through 4.1.3 silently installs Kubernetes plugins without cryptographic provenance verification even when signature verification is explicitly required, allowing local attackers to deliver malicious plugins that execute with Helm's privileges during installation. The flaw (CWE-636: Not Failing Securely) enables supply chain attacks where unsigned or tampered plugins bypass security controls intended to validate plugin integrity. …
