An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-42488 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/cilium/cilium (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.14.14, 1.15.8\n- github.com/cilium/cilium (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.14.14\n- github.com/cilium/cilium (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.14.14\n- github.com/cilium/cilium (Go): affected from 1.15.0; fixed in 1.15.8\n- github.com/cilium/cilium (Go): affected from 1.15.0; fixed in 1.15.8\n- cilium (Bitnami): affected from 1.15.4; fixed in 1.16.0\n- cilium-operator (Bitnami): affected from 1.15.4; fixed in 1.16.0\n- hubble-relay (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 1.16.0\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42488/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42488/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-42488","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42488/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-42488","record":{"aliases":["BIT-cilium-2024-42488","BIT-cilium-operator-2024-42488","BIT-hubble-relay-2024-42488","GHSA-q7w8-72mr-vpgw","GO-2024-3072"],"analysis":{"component_type":"container_or_infrastructure","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cilium network security","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A race condition in Cilium agent allows attackers to bypass Host Firewall policies by causing the agent to ignore node labels.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"cilium","vendor":"cilium"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"Cilium is a networking, observability, and security solution with an eBPF-based dataplane. Prior to versions 1.14.14 and 1.15.8, a race condition in the Cilium agent can cause the agent to ignore labels that should be applied to a node. This could in turn cause CiliumClusterwideNetworkPolicies intended for nodes with the ignored label to not apply, leading to policy bypass. This issue has been patched in Cilium v1.14.14 and v1.15.8 As the underlying issue depends on a race condition, users unable to upgrade can restart the Cilium agent on affected nodes until the affected policies are confirmed to be working as expected.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Cilium agent's race condition may lead to policy bypass for Host Firewall policy","id":"CVE-2024-42488","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":null,"products":[],"type":"race_condition","year":"2024"},"n_packages":8,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Pro Macros Remote Code Execution via Viewpdf and similar macros","id":"CVE-2024-42489"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["1.16.0"],"introduced":["1.15.4"],"last_affected":[],"package":"cilium","purl":"pkg:bitnami/cilium","source":"BIT-cilium-2024-42488"},{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["1.16.0"],"introduced":["1.15.4"],"last_affected":[],"package":"cilium-operator","purl":"pkg:bitnami/cilium-operator","source":"BIT-cilium-operator-2024-42488"},{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["1.16.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"hubble-relay","purl":"pkg:bitnami/hubble-relay","source":"BIT-hubble-relay-2024-42488"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.14.14","1.15.8"],"introduced":["0","1.15.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/cilium/cilium","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/cilium/cilium","source":"GO-2024-3072"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.14.14"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/cilium/cilium","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-q7w8-72mr-vpgw"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.14.14"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/cilium/cilium","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/cilium/cilium","source":"GHSA-q7w8-72mr-vpgw"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.15.8"],"introduced":["1.15.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/cilium/cilium","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-q7w8-72mr-vpgw"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.15.8"],"introduced":["1.15.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/cilium/cilium","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/cilium/cilium","source":"GHSA-q7w8-72mr-vpgw"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cilium's Gateway API route matching order contradicts specification","id":"CVE-2024-42487"},"products":["cilium"],"published":"2024-08-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.2,"headline":"Cilium: Sensitive information disclosure and cluster disruption via local Envoy admin socket access","id":"CVE-2026-49445","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Incorrect Default Permissions in Cilium","id":"CVE-2022-29178","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-20"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Insecure IPsec transport encryption in Cilium","id":"CVE-2024-28860","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-27"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Cillium exposes sensitive information included in the cilium-bugtool debug archive","id":"CVE-2026-41520","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-08"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Cilium leaks sensitive information in cilium-bugtool","id":"CVE-2024-37307","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-13"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Cilium NetworkPolicy bypass via pod labels","id":"CVE-2023-39347","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-26"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Improper Privilege Management in Cilium","id":"CVE-2022-29179","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-20"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-19","vendors":["cilium"]},"summary":"A race condition in Cilium agent allows attackers to bypass Host Firewall policies by causing the agent to ignore node labels.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-42488/"}
