Last modified

CVE-2026-85594 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. Traefik versions from v3.7.1 fail to enforce crossProviderNamespaces restrictions on the traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/service.middlewares Service annotation in the Kubernetes Ingress provider. A namespace-limited tenant excluded from the allowlist can attach an operator-owned middleware to its Service, and if that middleware injects backend credentials, recover them at a controlled backend.. EPSS estimates a 0.48% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
