CVE-2024-47825: CIDR deny policies may not take effect when a more narrow CIDR allow is present

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 34/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.39% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • Fixed version: github.com/cilium/cilium (Go) 1.14.16, 1.15.10; govulncheck-vulndb (openSUSE:Leap 15.5) 0.0.20241030T212825-150000.1.9.1; govulncheck-vulndb (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 0.0.20241030T212825-1.1.
  • Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 4.0, NVD 8.7.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to github.com/cilium/cilium (Go) 1.14.16, 1.15.10; govulncheck-vulndb (openSUSE:Leap 15.5) 0.0.20241030T212825-150000.1.9.1; govulncheck-vulndb (openSUSE:Tumbleweed) 0.0.20241030T212825-1.1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Cilium is a networking, observability, and security solution with an eBPF-based dataplane. Starting in version 1.14.0 and prior to versions 1.14.16 and 1.15.10, a policy rule denying a prefix that is broader than `/32` may be ignored if there is a policy rule referencing a more narrow prefix (`CIDRSet` or `toFQDN`) and this narrower policy rule specifies either `enableDefaultDeny: false` or `- toEntities: all`. Note that a rule specifying `toEntities: world` or `toEntities: 0.0.0.0/0` is insufficient, it must be to entity `all`.This issue has been patched in Cilium v1.14.16 and v1.15.10. As this issue only affects policies using `enableDefaultDeny: false` or that set `toEntities` to `all`, some workarounds are available. For users with policies using `enableDefaultDeny: false`, remove this configuration option and explicitly define any allow rules required. For users with egress policies that explicitly specify `toEntities: all`, use `toEntities: world`.
