CVE-2024-35181
CVE-2024-35181 is a SQL injection vulnerability affecting Meshery, a Kubernetes infrastructure manager. This flaw allows attackers to potentially write arbitrary files and modify sensitive data within the database, including session cookies and Kubernetes configurations. The vulnerability exists in versions prior to 0.7.22, specifically within the GetMeshSyncResourcesKinds
function accessible via the /api/system/meshsync/resources/kinds
API endpoint. While the CVSS score is 0, the SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) of 30 indicates a moderate risk, signaling that although not critical, the vulnerability should still be addressed. Successful exploitation of CVE-2024-35181 could lead to unauthorized access and control over Meshery instances, impacting the security of managed Kubernetes environments. Users of Meshery are strongly advised to upgrade to version 0.7.22 or later to mitigate this security risk.
