NVD description

vault-secrets-webhook is a Kubernetes mutating webhook that makes direct secret injection into Pods possible. Prior to 1.23.1, parseVaultConfig() in pkg/webhook/config.go accepts the vault.security.banzaicloud.io/vault-addr annotation, MutateConfigMap and MutateSecret call newVaultClient in pkg/webhook/webhook.go, and vault.security.banzaicloud.io/vault-serviceaccount can cause a ServiceAccount JWT to be sent to an attacker-controlled Vault address. This issue is fixed in version 1.23.1.

    🚨Critical - bank-vaults vault-secrets-webhook SSRF + ServiceAccount Token Exfil (CVE-2026-54725) bank-vaults vault-secrets-webhook accepts an attacker-controlled Vault address via pod annotations and uses it during admission without validation, enabling SSRF from the webhook to arbitrary URLs (incl. cloud metadata). An attacker who can create/update watched ConfigMaps/Secrets can also abuse the vault-serviceaccount annotation plus cluster-wide token creation permission to mint and exfiltrate ServiceAccount JWTs. Clusters where untrusted users can’t modify watched objects aren’t impacted. 👉Affected: http://github.com/bank-vaults/vault-secrets-webhook < 1.23.1 | Upgrade to 1.23.1

    Post summary

    The post discloses a critical SSRF and token exfiltration flaw in bank‑vaults vault‑secrets‑webhook, recommends upgrading to version 1.23.1, and provides technical details but no PoC or exploitation evidence.
