AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Attacker needs tenant-creation rights (PR:L) plus a usable normalized name collision and shared datastore (AC:H); the isolation break crosses tenants (S:C) with full C/I/A loss of the victim cluster.

Kamaji is the Hosted Control Plane Manager for Kubernetes. Prior to 26.7.4-edge, Kamaji derives a TenantControlPlane datastore schema, database user, and etcd key prefix from a lossy namespace-and-name normalization in GetDefaultDatastoreSchema() and GetDefaultDatastoreUsername(), allowing distinct tenants with colliding normalized identifiers to share control-plane state and read, modify, or destroy another tenant's Kubernetes data. This issue is fixed in version 26.7.4-edge.

AnalysisAI
Cross-tenant data compromise in Clastix Kamaji (Hosted Control Plane Manager for Kubernetes) before 26.7.4-edge lets one tenant read, modify, or destroy another tenant's control-plane state. Kamaji's defaulting webhook derived each TenantControlPlane's datastore schema, database user, and etcd key prefix from a lossy namespace-and-name normalization that replaced dashes with underscores, so two tenants whose names normalize to the same string (e.g. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the ability to create a TenantControlPlane resource (PR:L) whose namespace-and-name combination, after Kamaji's dash-to-underscore normalization in GetDefaultDatastoreSchema()/GetDefaultDatastoreUsername(), collides with a target tenant's normalized identifier - for example a tenant using a dash where another uses an underscore in the corresponding position. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.5 (High) with vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H: network reachable, but high attack complexity and low privileges required, with a scope change reflecting that impact crosses the tenant isolation boundary into another tenant's data (full C/I/A loss of the victim cluster). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | In a multi-tenant Kamaji platform where customers self-select cluster names, an attacker provisions a TenantControlPlane whose namespace/name normalizes (dashes-to-underscores) to the same identifier as a victim tenant, causing Kamaji to assign both the same datastore schema, DB user, and etcd key prefix. The attacker's control plane then reads and writes the victim's shared etcd/kine state, letting it exfiltrate secrets, tamper with workloads, or wipe the victim cluster's data. … |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: 26.7.4-edge - upgrade Kamaji to 26.7.4-edge or later, which derives datastore schema and username from the immutable TenantControlPlane UID instead of the lossy namespace/name normalization (see GHSA-4f3f-65vx-r34f). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, identify all instances of Clastix Kamaji in production and determine their versions compared to the affected range (before version 26.7.4-edge); document any multi-tenant deployments that may share underlying storage. …
