Vulnerability from cvelistv5

Summary
In Helm before versions 2.16.11 and 3.3.2, a Helm repository can contain duplicates of the same chart, with the last one always used. If a repository is compromised, this lowers the level of access that an attacker needs to inject a bad chart into a repository. To perform this attack, an attacker must have write access to the index file (which can occur during a MITM attack on a non-SSL connection). This issue has been patched in Helm 3.3.2 and 2.16.11. A possible workaround is to manually review the index file in the Helm repository cache before installing software.

If a repository is compromised, this lowers the level of access that an attacker needs to inject a bad chart into a repository. To perform this attack, an attacker must have write access to the index file (which can occur during a MITM attack on a non-SSL connection). This issue has been patched in Helm 3.3.2 and 2.16.11. A possible workaround is to manually review the index file in the Helm repository cache before installing software.\"},{\"lang\":\"es\",\"value\":\"En Helm versiones anteriores a 2.16.11 y 3.3.2, un repositorio de Helm puede contener duplicados del mismo gráfico, y siempre se usa el último.&#xa0;Si un repositorio está comprometido, esto reduce el nivel de acceso que necesita un atacante para inyectar un gráfico incorrecto en un repositorio.&#xa0;Para llevar a cabo este ataque, un atacante necesita tener acceso de escritura al archivo de index (lo que puede ocurrir durante un ataque MITM en una conexión no SSL).&#xa0;Este problema ha sido corregido en Helm versiones 3.3.2 y 2.16.11.&#xa0;Una posible solución es revisar manualmente el archivo  index en la caché del repositorio de Helm antes de instalar el software\"}],\"metrics\":{\"cvssMetricV31\":[{\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N\",\"baseScore\":2.2,\"baseSeverity\":\"LOW\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"HIGH\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"HIGH\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"LOW\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"NONE\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":0.7,\"impactScore\":1.4},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N\",\"baseScore\":2.7,\"baseSeverity\":\"LOW\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"HIGH\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"LOW\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"NONE\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":1.2,\"impactScore\":1.4}],\"cvssMetricV2\":[{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"2.0\",\"vectorString\":\"AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:P/A:N\",\"baseScore\":4.0,\"accessVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"accessComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"authentication\":\"SINGLE\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"PARTIAL\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"NONE\"},\"baseSeverity\":\"MEDIUM\",\"exploitabilityScore\":8.0,\"impactScore\":2.9,\"acInsufInfo\":false,\"obtainAllPrivilege\":false,\"obtainUserPrivilege\":false,\"obtainOtherPrivilege\":false,\"userInteractionRequired\":false}]},\"weaknesses\":[{\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-74\"},{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-694\"}]},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"NVD-CWE-Other\"}]}],\"configurations\":[{\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:helm:helm:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"2.0.0\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"2.16.11\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"455BCCE5-1D43-4E59-9591-E84B52DAAF0B\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:a:helm:helm:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionStartIncluding\":\"3.0.0\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"3.3.2\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"B462D769-3FC0-4079-8B48-863F013662EF\"}]}]}],\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://github.com/helm/helm/commit/055dd41cbe53ce131ab0357524a7f6729e6e40dc\",\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/helm/helm/security/advisories/GHSA-jm56-5h66-w453\",\"source\":\"security-advisories@github.com\",\"tags\":[\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/helm/helm/commit/055dd41cbe53ce131ab0357524a7f6729e6e40dc\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Patch\",\"Third Party Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://github.com/helm/helm/security/advisories/GHSA-jm56-5h66-w453\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Third Party Advisory\"]}]}}",
