CVE-2026-65602 high CVSS 8.8

Authorization Flaw in github.com/traefik/traefik (CVE-2026-65602)

Summary

Vulnerability in github.com/traefik/traefik (CVE-2026-65602). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover. Exploitable via crossProviderNamespaces. Mitigation: upgrade to 3.7.7 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Summary

There is a medium-severity cross-provider reference vulnerability in Traefik's Kubernetes CRD provider. The crossProviderNamespaces allowlist is enforced for HTTP serversTransport references but was not enforced for IngressRouteTCP service serversTransport references. A low-privileged Kubernetes user in a namespace that is not listed in crossProviderNamespaces could set serversTransport: foo@file on an IngressRouteTCP service, causing Traefik to accept the forbidden cross-provider reference and use the file-provider TCPServersTransport — including privileged backend mTLS client certificates, SPIFFE identity, or PROXY-protocol settings. The fix applies the crossProviderNamespaces allowlist to TCP serversTransport references.

Original Description

Summary

Traefik's Kubernetes CRD provider enforces crossProviderNamespaces for several
cross-provider references, but IngressRouteTCP service
serversTransport references skip that allowlist. A low-privileged Kubernetes
user in a namespace that is not listed in crossProviderNamespaces can still
set serversTransport: foo@file on an IngressRouteTCP service. Traefik
accepts the forbidden cross-provider reference and…

❓ What is the problem

Incorrect authorization (CWE-863) exists in github.com/traefik/traefik. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via crossProviderNamespaces.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of github.com/traefik/traefik. Attack surface: crossProviderNamespaces / serversTransport / IngressRouteTCP / TCPServersTransport.

🔥 Severity

Severity: High (CVSS 8.8/10). Successful exploitation can lead to full system takeover.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 3.7.7.

🛡️ Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'github.com/traefik/traefik' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify 
    grep -r 'github.com/traefik/traefik' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で github.com/traefik/traefik を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply patch patch 
    Upgrade github.com/traefik/traefik to 3.7.7

    ステージング環境で 3.7.7 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。

  3. 3
    Post-deployment verification verify 
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
