Technical details
A vulnerability in the Fission Function admission webhook exists due to missing namespace validation for 'PackageRef.Namespace'. An attacker with permissions to create functions in their own namespace can specify a 'PackageRef' pointing to a different namespace. When the function is invoked, the 'fission-fetcher' service account—which possesses cluster-wide 'get packages' permissions—retrieves the target package and writes its contents to the attacker's pod. This allows for the extraction of deployment archives, source code, and embedded secrets from any package in the cluster. The issue is fixed in version 1.24.0 by enforcing that the package namespace matches the function's metadata namespace.
