Red Hat Security Advisory: OpenShift Container Platform 4.16.66 bug fix and security update

Important

A flaw was found in lodash. The fix for CVE-2021-23337 added validation for the variable option in _.template but did not apply the same validation to options.imports key names. Both paths flow into the same Function() constructor sink. Additionally, _.template uses assignInWith to merge imports, which enumerates inherited properties via for..in. If Object.prototype has been polluted by any other vector, the polluted keys are copied into the imports object and passed to Function().

CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

A flaw was found in undici. When undici's ProxyAgent is configured with a SOCKS5 proxy Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), it silently ignores Transport Layer Security (TLS) options, such as custom Certificate Authorities (CAs). This allows a remote attacker to perform a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack, intercepting and tampering with HTTPS communications. The connection falls back to Node.js's default trust store, bypassing intended security configurations and potentially leading to information disclosure or arbitrary code execution.
