CVE-2024-1725Network attack vector

Root-volume disclosure via unvalidated PersistentVolume handles

Published Mar 7, 2024 · Updated Nov 14, 2025

Trust boundary violation in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.13 through 4.15 allows remote authenticated users to read worker-node root volumes. kubevirt-csi accepts an attacker-controlled volumeHandle and maps its predictable node-name-rhcos value to an infrastructure PVC without tenant-label or prefix validation. The attacker must be able to create PersistentVolumes in an HCP guest cluster; a crafted volume can then expose the selected node volume inside a pod.
