    <title>GHSA-jv3w-x3r3-g6rm — CNA Plugins Portmap nftables backend can intercept non-local traffic</title>
    <updated>2026-10-05T22:13:03.452795+00:00</updated>
    <content type="xhtml">
      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><strong>Affected:</strong> Go: github.com/containernetworking/plugins</p>
<p>### Background</p>
<p>The CNI `portmap` plugin allows containers to emulate opening a host port, forwarding that traffic to the container. For example, if a host has the IP 198.51.100.42, a container may request that all packets to `198.51.100.42:53` be forwarded to the container's network.</p>
<p>### Vulnerability</p>
<p>When the `portmap` plugin is configured with the `nftables` backend, it inadvertently forwards all traffic with the same destination port as the host port, **ignoring the destination IP**. This includes traffic not intended for the node itself, i.e. traffic to containers hosted on the node.</p>
<p>In the given example above, traffic destined to port 53 but for a _separate container_ would still be captured and forwarded, even though it was not destined for the host.</p>
<p>### Impact</p>
<p>Containers (i.e. kubernetes pods) that request HostPort forwarding can intercept all traffic destined for that port. This requires that the `portmap` plugin be explicitly configured to use the `nftables` backend. (The `iptables` backend is the default.)</p>
<p>### Patches
This is fixed as of CNI plugins v1.9.0</p>
<p>### Workarounds
Configure the `portmap` plugin to use the `iptables` backend. It does not have this vulnerability.</p></div>
