Technical details
A path traversal vulnerability (CWE-22) exists in Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). The flaw stems from improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory, which can be exploited by an authorized attacker with local access. By providing specially crafted path inputs, an attacker can escape the intended directory structure to execute arbitrary code. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 8.8, notably featuring a 'Changed' Scope (S:C), indicating that an exploit can impact resources beyond the immediate security scope of the AKS component. Users should refer to the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) for specific patching or mitigation guidance.
