Kube-router is a turnkey solution for Kubernetes networking. Prior to version 2.8.0, Kube-router's proxy module does not validate externalIPs or loadBalancer IPs before programming them into the node's network configuration. Version 2.8.0 contains a patch for the issue. Available workarounds include enabling DenyServiceExternalIPs feature gate, deploying admission policy, restricting service creation RBAC, monitoring service changes, and applying BGP prefix filtering.
CVE-2026-32254
This high-severity CVE scores 7.1 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 78% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
