CVE-2026-100706

kyverno before 1.19.1 Privilege Escalation via Policy apiCall urlPath PUBLISHED

Description (CNA)

kyverno before 1.19.1 fails to properly validate URL-encoded path segments in Policy apiCall urlPath, allowing namespace tenants to bypass the per-namespace clamp and create objects in other namespaces as the admission-controller ServiceAccount. Attackers can exploit this by using percent-encoded directory traversal sequences to create MutatingWebhookConfiguration objects cluster-wide or PolicyException objects in the kyverno namespace, enabling privilege escalation to cluster admin.
