Doc Text:
The AuthPolicy metadata on Red Hat Connectivity Link contains an object which stores secretes, however it assumes those secretes are already in the kuadrant-system instead of copying it to the referred namespace. This creates space for a malicious actor with a developer persona access to leak those secrets over HTTP connection, as long the attacker knows the name of the targeted secrets and those secrets are limited to one line only.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-02-24 23:42:34 UTC 
Developer personas can exfiltrate secrets that they are unauthorized to view from the kuadrant-system namespace. Note that by default, there are no highly sensitive secrets in this namespace. Such an attack also assumes the attacker knows the name of the secrets (through direct knowledge or bruteforce).
