External Secrets Operator reads information from a third-party service and automatically injects the values as Kubernetes Secrets. Prior to 2.4.0, Namespaced SecretStore resources that used CAProvider with type ConfigMap could resolve CA material from another namespace when caProvider.namespace was set. This bypassed the namespace boundary enforced for SecretStore-backed references in providers that rely on the shared runtime CA resolver. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.4.0.
Improper Authorization The product does not perform or incorrectly performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action.
Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere The product exposes a resource to the wrong control sphere, providing unintended actors with inappropriate access to the resource.
