Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Kyverno is a policy engine designed for cloud native platform engineering teams. The patch for
 CVE-2026-22039 fixed cross-namespace privilege escalation in Kyverno's `apiCall` context by validating the
 `URLPath` field. However, the ConfigMap context loader has the identical vulnerability — the
 `configMap.namespace` field accepts any namespace with zero validation, allowing a namespace admin to read
 ConfigMaps from any namespace using Kyverno's privileged service account. This is a complete RBAC bypass
 in multi-tenant Kubernetes clusters. An updated fix is available in version 1.17.2. (CVE-2026-41068)

Solution

Update the kyverno-1.15-fips library and its related packages to version 1.15.3+e26 or later.
