CVE-2026-54495: open-feature-operator: Cross-namespace FeatureFlagSource and InProcessConfiguration resolution exposes spec contents on multi-tenant clusters

July 15, 2026

A namespaced FeatureFlagSource or InProcessConfiguration resource can be referenced cross-namespace via the openfeature.dev/featureflagsource annotation using the documented {NAMESPACE}/{NAME} syntax. The operator resolves the referenced resource cluster-wide and materializes its contents (env vars, flagd sidecar arguments including httpSyncBearerToken, sync URIs, supporting ConfigMaps) into the referencing workload.

On multi-tenant clusters that treat namespaces as trust boundaries, a tenant who can deploy a controller-owned workload in their own namespace can cause the operator to read another tenant’s FeatureFlagSource / InProcessConfiguration spec contents.
