Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-01-13 06:11:59 UTC
Windows nodes are vulnerable to a security issue that allows unauthorized command execution via the /logs endpoint, potentially compromising the host system.

This CVE affects only Windows worker nodes. Your worker node is vulnerable to this issue if it is running one of the affected versions listed below.

Affected Versions
  *   v1.32.0
  *   v1.31.0 to v1.31.4
  *   v1.30.0 to v1.30.8
  *   <=v1.29.12
To detect whether this vulnerability has been exploited, you can examine your cluster's audit logs to search for node 'logs' queries with suspicious inputs.
