CVE-2020-15186 (GCVE-0-2020-15186)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2020-09-17 21:40 – Updated: 2024-08-04 13:08

Title

Improper sanitization of plugin names in Helm

Summary

In Helm before versions 2.16.11 and 3.3.2 plugin names are not sanitized properly. As a result, a malicious plugin author could use characters in a plugin name that would result in unexpected behavior, such as duplicating the name of another plugin or spoofing the output to `helm --help`. This issue has been patched in Helm 3.3.2. A possible workaround is to not install untrusted Helm plugins. Examine the `name` field in the `plugin.yaml` file for a plugin, looking for characters outside of the [a-zA-Z0-9._-] range.

Severity

Summary

Improper sanitization of plugin names in Helm

Details

In Helm before versions 2.16.11 and 3.3.2 plugin names are not sanitized properly. As a result, a malicious plugin author could use characters in a plugin name that would result in unexpected behavior, such as duplicating the name of another plugin or spoofing the output to helm --help. This issue has been patched in Helm 3.3.2. A possible workaround is to not install untrusted Helm plugins. Examine the name field in the plugin.yaml file for a plugin, looking for characters outside of the [a-zA-Z0-9._-] range.

GHSA-M54R-VRMV-HW33

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2021-05-24 16:57 – Updated: 2023-10-02 14:09

Summary

Improper Sanitizing of plugin names in helm

Details

Impact

Security researchers at Trail of Bits discovered that plugin names are not sanitized properly. As a result, a malicious plugin author could use characters in a plugin name that would result in unexpected behavior, such as duplicating the name of another plugin or spoofing the output to helm --help.

Specific Go Packages Affected

helm.sh/helm/v3/pkg/plugin

Patches

This issue has been patched in Helm 3.3.2.

Workarounds

Do not install untrusted Helm plugins. Examine the name field in the plugin.yaml file for a plugin, looking for characters outside of the [a-zA-Z0-9._-] range.

Severity

3.4 (Low)
