high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 418184

Description

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

- Kyverno is a policy engine designed for Kubernetes. A kyverno ClusterPolicy, ie. "disallow-privileged-
containers," can be overridden by the creation of a PolicyException in a random namespace. By design,
PolicyExceptions are consumed from any namespace. Administrators may not recognize that this allows users
with privileges to non-kyverno namespaces to create exceptions. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.13.0.
