CVE-2026-122322— Kyverno from 1.11.0 before 1.19.2 Memory Exhaustion via Notary Attestation Decompression

Quick assessment

Affected
kyverno kyverno
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Kyverno 在 1.11.0 至 1.19.2 之前的版本中，其 函数存在一个无界解压缩漏洞。该漏洞允许远程攻击者通过提供高度压缩的 attestation（凭证）层，耗尽系统内存。能够控制注册表 referrer 工件的攻击者，可以推送在解压缩后超过 限制的 gzip predicate 层，从而导致准入控制器（admission controller）因内存溢出（OOM）被终止，引发拒绝服务（DoS）攻击。

Vulnerability Title
Kyverno from 1.11.0 before 1.19.2 Memory Exhaustion via Notary Attestation Decompression
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Kyverno from 1.11.0 before 1.19.2 contains an unbounded decompression vulnerability in extractStatement that allows remote attackers to exhaust memory by supplying highly compressed attestation layers. Attackers controlling registry referrer artifacts can push gzip predicate layers exceeding maxPayloadSize when decompressed, causing admission controller OOM kills and denial of service.
