      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><strong>Affected:</strong> Go: github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-operator</p>
<p>## Affected</p>
<p>Repository: github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-operator
Component: cmd/otel-allocator (TargetAllocator)
Companion: Prometheus Operator API types (CRDs)</p>
<p>## Summary</p>
<p>OpenTelemetry Operator's TargetAllocator watches `ServiceMonitor` resources via the Prometheus Operator CR watcher and converts each selected endpoint into a Prometheus scrape configuration entry. The endpoint field `bearerTokenFile` is preserved through the conversion as `HTTPClientConfig.Authorization.CredentialsFile`. The OpenTelemetry Collector, configured with the Prometheus receiver, then loads that scrape config and, at scrape time, reads the file from its own pod filesystem and sends the contents as `Authorization: Bearer ...` to the scrape endpoint.</p>
<p>A tenant who can create or update a `ServiceMonitor` selected by TargetAllocator can set `bearerTokenFile: /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token` and a scrape target the tenant controls. The Collector then ships its mounted service account JWT to that target on every scrape interval.</p>
<p>The Prometheus Operator project addressed the same primitive via the `ArbitraryFSAccessThroughSMs.Deny` admission/runtime guard.</p>
<p>## Preconditions</p>
<p>The OpenTelemetry Collector needs to be deployed with `targetAllocator.prometheusCR.enabled: true` and `serviceMonitorSelector` / `serviceMonitorNamespaceSelector` matching at least one namespace where the attacker can create or update `ServiceMonitor` (or paired with a TargetAllocator resource with t…</p></div>
