Last modified

CVE-2026-122312 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.7/10 on the CVSS scale. Kyverno from 1.19.1 before 1.19.2 contains a namespace isolation bypass in APICall Fetch() in pkg/engine/apicall/apiCall.go because path.Clean treats '?' as a path character, letting the namespace regex match segments inside the query string. Users who can create namespaced policies can supply a URLPath like /api/v1/nodes?x=/namespaces/default/ that passes validation while client-go requests the cluster-scoped endpoint, reading resources outside their namespace.. EPSS estimates a 0.31% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
