Description

In Kubernetes clusters using a logging level of at least 4, processing a malformed docker config file will result in the contents of the docker config file being leaked, which can include pull secrets or other registry credentials. This affects < v1.19.3, < v1.18.10, < v1.17.13.

Solution(s)

  • kubernetes-upgrade-1_17_13
  • kubernetes-upgrade-1_18_10
