Severity ?
2.2 (Low) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N
CWE
  • CWE-694 - {"":"Use of Multiple Resources with Duplicate Identifier"}
  • CWE-74 - {"":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component ('Injection')"}
Summary
In Helm before versions 2.16.11 and 3.3.2, a Helm repository can contain duplicates of the same chart, with the last one always used. If a repository is compromised, this lowers the level of access that an attacker needs to inject a bad chart into a repository. To perform this attack, an attacker must have write access to the index file (which can occur during a MITM attack on a non-SSL connection). This issue has been patched in Helm 3.3.2 and 2.16.11. A possible workaround is to manually review the index file in the Helm repository cache before installing software.
