Summary

Aliases are never checked in Helm

Details

In Helm before versions 2.16.11 and 3.3.2 there is a bug in which the alias field on a Chart.yaml is not properly sanitized. This could lead to the injection of unwanted information into a chart. This issue has been patched in Helm 3.3.2 and 2.16.11. A possible workaround is to manually review the dependencies field of any untrusted chart, verifying that the alias field is either not used, or (if used) does not contain newlines or path characters.
