Kubernetes Kustomization Disclosure

Kubernetes Kustomization Disclosure

Search for the presence of Kubernetes Kustomization files (kustomization.yml) on the provided URLs.

Security Misconfiguration (SM)

"Kubernetes Kustomization Disclosure involves searching for the presence of Kubernetes Kustomization files (kustomization.yml) on the provided URLs. These files define customizations for Kubernetes deployments and may contain sensitive configuration information such as API versions, resource definitions, namespaces, and labels. Identifying and addressing this vulnerability is critical to prevent unauthorized access, protect sensitive data, and maintain the integrity of Kubernetes deployments."

Impact of the vulnerability

Impact of the vulnerability

Exposing Kubernetes Kustomization files reveals sensitive configuration details, enabling attackers to gain insights into the deployment structure and potentially launch unauthorized access, data leaks, or further attacks.

How this template works

APIs Selection

The API selection filters in this template specify the criteria for selecting the URLs to be tested. In this case, the filters include checking the response code to be between 200 and 299, and extracting the URL into a variable called "urlVar".

Execute request

The execute section defines the type of request to be made and the modifications to be applied to the URL. In this template, a single request is made, and the URL is modified by appending "/kustomization.yml" to the extracted URL variable.

Validation

The validation section defines the criteria for validating the response received from the executed request. It checks that the response code is 200, the response payload contains at least one of the specified keywords (such as "apiVersion", "resources", etc.), and the response headers contain a value that matches one of the specified content types (e.g., "application/yaml").
