November 3, 2023 (updated February 13, 2025)

Kubernetes is vulnerable to privilege escalation when a user that can create pods on Windows nodes running kubernetes-csi-proxy may be able to escalate to admin privileges on those nodes. Kubernetes clusters are only affected if they include Windows nodes running kubernetes-csi-proxy.
