critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 433383

Description

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

- Capsule is a multi-tenancy and policy-based framework for Kubernetes. A namespace label injection
vulnerability in Capsule v0.10.3 and earlier allows authenticated tenant users to inject arbitrary labels
into system namespaces (kube-system, default, capsule-system), bypassing multi-tenant isolation and
potentially accessing cross-tenant resources through TenantResource selectors. This vulnerability enables
privilege escalation and violates the fundamental security boundaries that Capsule is designed to enforce.
This vulnerability is fixed in 0.10.4. (CVE-2025-55205)
