Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
Due to a mis-written NetworkPolicy, a malicious actor can pivot from a subverted application to any Pod out of the origin namespace.
This breaks the security-by-default property expected as part of the deployment program, leading to a potential lateral movement.
### Patch
Removing the `inter-ns` NetworkPolicy patches the vulnerability. If updates are not possible in production environments, we recommend to manually delete it and update as soon as possible.
### Workaround
Given your context, delete the failing network policy that should be prefixed by `inter-ns-` in the target namespace.
You can use the following to delete all matching network policy. If unsure of the outcome, please do it manually.
```bash
for ns in $(kubectl get ns -o jsonpath='{.items[*].metadata.name}' | tr ' ' '\n' | grep '^ns-'); do
kubectl -n "$ns" get networkpolicy -o name \
| grep '^networkpolicy.networking.k8s.io/inter-ns-' \
| xargs -r kubectl -n "$ns" delete
done
```
