A security vulnerability exists in SUSE Rancher, specifically within its meta proxy component, which allows for an allowlist bypass. This vulnerability can lead to server-side request forgery (SSRF), potentially enabling attackers to make unauthorized requests to internal resources that should be restricted. Administrators should apply the provided updates immediately.
Recommendation
- Update Rancher instances to the following patched versions to address the meta proxy allowlist bypass:
- 2.11.19
- 2.12.15
- 2.13.11
- 2.14.7
- 2.15.3
- Review Rancher logs for anomalous outbound HTTP requests originating from the cluster management API or proxy components.
Immediate actions
Upgrade all Rancher deployments to the specified patched versions
Threat Hunt
Hunt for anomalous requests to internal metadata services (e.g., 169.254.169.254) or internal IP ranges originating from the Rancher server process
Data: Rancher container network logs, VPC/Cloud flow logs
Mitigations
Upgrade to patched versions: 2.11.19, 2.12.15, 2.13.11, 2.14.7, or 2.15.3
