CVE-2026-84195Kyverno before 1.16.4 Credential Leak via apiCall

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects kyverno. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Kyverno before 1.16.4 automatically attaches the admission controller's ServiceAccount token to outbound HTTP requests in apiCall service mode without explicit authorization headers. Attackers can exfiltrate the token by directing apiCall requests to external or attacker-controlled endpoints, gaining full control over Kyverno policies and cluster resources.
