CVE-2024-56514: Karmada Tar Slips in CRDs archive extraction

January 3, 2025 (updated October 31, 2025)

What kind of vulnerability is it? Who is impacted?

Both in karmadactl and karmada-operator, it is possible to supply a filesystem path, or an HTTP(s) URL to retrieve the custom resource definitions(CRDs) needed by karmada. The CRDs are downloaded as a gzipped tarfile and are vulnerable to a TarSlip vulnerability. An attacker able to supply a malicious CRD file into a karmada initialization could write arbitrary files in arbitrary paths of the filesystem.
