Cilium

Network policy bypass in Cilium 1.19.0-1.19.4 allows workloads inside a Kubernetes namespace to reach peers that CIDR-based ipBlock NetworkPolicies should block. The flaw surfaces exclusively when Cilium is deployed with a custom clusterName (any value other than the default 'any'): the network-policy parser in parseNetworkPolicyPeer erroneously instantiates an empty pod selector for selectorless ipBlock peers, which compiles into a wildcard namespace-allow rule instead of a pure CIDR rule. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and this CVE is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Cross-namespace authorization bypass in Cilium's Gateway API implementation (versions prior to 1.17.17, 1.18.11, and 1.19.5) lets any user holding namespaced permission to create or update HTTPRoutes (and GRPCRoutes) attach a RequestMirror filter that copies HTTP/gRPC traffic to any Service in any namespace, silently defeating the Kubernetes Gateway API ReferenceGrant control that is supposed to gate cross-namespace backend references. This is a CWE-862 missing-authorization flaw (CVSS 8.9) that enables tenant-boundary violation and traffic exfiltration in multi-tenant clusters. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, it is not in CISA KEV, and EPSS is low (0.20%); Gateway API is also disabled by default, so exposure is limited to clusters that have explicitly enabled it.

Cilium versions 1.18.0-1.18.5 with Native Routing, WireGuard, and Node Encryption enabled incorrectly allow cross-node Pod traffic that should be blocked, enabling unauthorized network access between isolated workloads. An attacker with network access to pods on different nodes can bypass network segmentation policies to access restricted services. The vulnerability affects deployments using these specific Cilium configurations and is resolved in version 1.18.6.
