Title

AWS EFS CSI Driver Mount Option Injection

Summary

Improper neutralization of argument delimiters in the volume handling component in AWS EFS CSI Driver (aws-efs-csi-driver) before v3.0.1 allows remote authenticated users with PersistentVolume creation permissions to inject arbitrary mount options via comma injection. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version v3.0.1

GHSA-MPH4-Q2VM-W2PW

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-18 01:07 – Updated: 2026-04-18 01:07

Summary

Amazon EFS CSI Driver has mount option injection via unsanitized volumeHandle and mounttargetip fields

Details

Summary

The Amazon EFS CSI Driver is a Container Storage Interface driver that allows Kubernetes clusters to use Amazon Elastic File System. An issue exists where, under certain circumstances, unsanitized values in the volumeHandle and mounttargetip fields are passed directly to the mount command, allowing injection of arbitrary mount options.

Impact

An actor with PersistentVolume creation privileges can inject arbitrary mount options by appending comma-separated values to the Access Point ID in volumeHandle or to the mounttargetip volumeAttribute. The mount utility parses comma-separated values as separate options, causing the injected options to be applied to the filesystem mount without authorization.

Impacted versions: <= v3.0.0

Patches

This issue has been addressed in Amazon EFS CSI Driver version v3.0.1. We recommend upgrading to the latest version and ensuring any forked or derivative code is patched to incorporate the new fixes.

Workarounds

Restrict PersistentVolume and StorageClass creation to cluster administrators using Kubernetes RBAC, preventing untrusted users from supplying arbitrary field values.
