description
Kyverno 1.19.1 does not reliably confine apiCall requests to the intended namespace. A tenant who can create namespaced Policies may access resources outside that namespace or perform cluster-scoped actions with the admission controller service account's permissions.
mitigation
Upgrade Kyverno to version 1.19.2. Until the upgrade is complete, restrict untrusted users from creating or modifying Kyverno Policies and review the admission controller service account's permissions.
fixed in 1.19.2
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
