GHSA-c52f-pq47-2r9j
plugin.yaml file allows for duplicate entries in helm
Quick fix
GHSA-c52f-pq47-2r9j — helm.sh/helm/v3: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
go get helm.sh/helm/v3@v3.3.2Details
### Impact
During a security audit of Helm's code base, Helm maintainers identified a bug in which a Helm plugin can contain duplicates of the same entry, with the last one always used. If a plugin is compromised, this lowers the level of access that an attacker needs to modify a plugin's install hooks, causing a local execution attack.
To perform this attack, an attacker must have write access to the git repository or plugin archive (.tgz) while being downloaded (which can occur during a MITM attack on a non-SSL connection).
### Patches
This issue has been patched in Helm 2.16.11 and Helm 3.3.2.
### Workarounds
Make sure to install plugins using a secure connection protocol like SSL.
