HIGH NUCLEIingress-nginx < 1.11.5 and 1.12.0 - Remote Code Execution via auth-url Annotation Injection
Title source: llmExploitation Summary
EIP tracks 5 public exploits for CVE-2025-24514. PoCs published by Beatriz Fresno Naumova, hakaioffsec, Esonhugh. A Nuclei detection template is also available.
AI-analyzed exploit summary This exploit demonstrates a file descriptor injection vulnerability in the Ingress-NGINX Admission Controller, leading to remote code execution by uploading a malicious shared object and brute-forcing file descriptors.
Description
A security issue was discovered in ingress-nginx https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx where the `auth-url` Ingress annotation can be used to inject configuration into nginx. This can lead to arbitrary code execution in the context of the ingress-nginx controller, and disclosure of Secrets accessible to the controller. (Note that in the default installation, the controller can access all Secrets cluster-wide.)
Exploits (5)
This exploit demonstrates a file descriptor injection vulnerability in the Ingress-NGINX Admission Controller, leading to remote code execution by uploading a malicious shared object and brute-forcing file descriptors.
This repository contains a functional exploit for CVE-2025-24514, targeting unauthenticated RCE in the Ingress NGINX Controller for Kubernetes. The exploit compiles a malicious shared object, uploads it via a crafted HTTP request with mismatched Content-Length, and brute-forces file descriptors to trigger execution.
This repository contains a functional exploit for CVE-2025-1974, targeting Kubernetes ingress-nginx. The exploit leverages a vulnerability in the handling of HTTP requests to achieve remote code execution by manipulating temporary files and admission webhook configurations.
This repository contains a functional exploit for CVE-2025-24514, targeting a Kubernetes Ingress vulnerability. The exploit uses a crafted AdmissionReview request with a malicious payload to achieve remote code execution (RCE) on vulnerable systems.
This repository contains a Python-based scanner for CVE-2025-24514, which targets an ingress-nginx vulnerability allowing NGINX configuration manipulation via the `auth-url` annotation. The PoC sends a crafted HTTP request to detect potential vulnerability by checking for specific strings in the response.
