CVE-2026-53487
Published:August 21, 2026
Updated:September 24, 2026
Kite is a Kubernetes dashboard. Prior to version 0.12.3, authenticated Kite users with any role can request "/api/v1/overview" for a cluster that their roles do not permit by selecting that cluster with "x-cluster-name". The overview route is registered before "middleware.RBACMiddleware()" and "GetOverview" only checks "len(user.Roles) > 0", so it returns aggregate Kubernetes inventory and capacity data from unauthorized clusters. Version 0.12.3 fixes the issue.
