Summary

Traefik: `allowCrossNamespace=false` bypass via `@kubernetescrd` TraefikService backendRef

Details

Summary

There is a medium severity vulnerability in Traefik's Kubernetes CRD provider. When providers.kubernetesCRD.allowCrossNamespace is disabled — the default — cross-namespace @kubernetescrd references are rejected for middlewares, TLS options and HTTP/TCP ServersTransports, but the same restriction was not applied to TraefikService backend references resolved by the service resolver. A tenant confined by RBAC to a single namespace can therefore bind its own router to a TraefikService owned by another namespace and expose or reroute that namespace's backend, defeating the namespace isolation allowCrossNamespace=false is meant to enforce. Traefik v2 releases and the unmaintained v3 minor lines below v3.6 are affected and will not receive a patch on their own line; the remedy for those users is upgrading to a maintained, patched release.

Original Description ### Summary When `providers.kubernetesCRD.allowCrossNamespace=false` (the default), Traefik correctly rejects cross-namespace `@kubernetescrd` references for middlewares, TLS options, and HTTP/TCP `ServersTransport`, but it does not apply the same restriction to service (`TraefikService`) backendRefs. As a result, a Kubernetes tenant who is confined by RBAC to their own namespace can bind their own router to a `TraefikService` owned by another namespace simply by referencing it as `-@kubernetescrd`, defeating the namespace-isolation boundary that `allowCrossNamespace=false` is meant to enforce. This is the service-resolver sibling of the cross-namespace isolation family that Traefik has been fixing one resolver at a time (`df00d82f` / CVE-2026-41174 for Chain middlewares, and `67501cbe` for TCP `ServersTransport`, which shipped in v3.7.7 only four days before the analyzed commit). The `TraefikService` resolver in `configBuilder.nameAndService` was never given the guard its sibling resolvers received. ### Details ### Root cause `nameAndService` only performs the same-namespace check (`isNamespaceAllowed`) inside the branch that handles names without an `@` separator. For names that contain an `@` separator (that is, `@kubernetescrd` cross-namespace references) it applies only the `crossProviderNamespaces` allowlist check, and that check returns `true` by default because a `nil` allowlist means "unrestricted". It never applies the `!allowCrossNamespace && strings.HasSuffix(name, "@kubernetescrd")` rejection that the sibling resolvers all apply, so `allowCrossNamespace=false` is effectively never consulted for `@kubernetescrd` service references. ### Vulnerable code

// pkg/provider/kubernetes/crd/kubernetes_http.go:662-695 — nameAndService (VULNERABLE)
func (c configBuilder) nameAndService(ctx context.Context, parentNamespace string, service traefikv1alpha1.LoadBalancerSpec) (string, *dynamic.Service, error) {
    svcCtx := log.Ctx(ctx).With().Str(logs.ServiceName, service.Name).Logger().WithContext(ctx)

    if !strings.Contains(service.Name, providerNamespaceSeparator) { // 665: only names WITHOUT "@"
        service = *service.DeepCopy()
        service.Namespace = namespaceOrParentNamespace(service.Namespace, parentNamespace)
        if !isNamespaceAllowed(c.allowCrossNamespace, parentNamespace, service.Namespace) { // 669
            return "", nil, fmt.Errorf("service %s/%s not in the parent resource namespace %s", ...)
        }
    }

    // 674: for "@"-names, the ONLY gate is crossProviderNamespaces, which defaults to allow-all (nil).
    if !isCrossProviderNamespaceAllowed(c.crossProviderNamespaces, parentNamespace) && strings.Contains(service.Name, providerNamespaceSeparator) {
        return "", nil, fmt.Errorf("service %q reference is not allowed: ...", service.Name)
    }
    // ^-- MISSING: no `!c.allowCrossNamespace && strings.HasSuffix(service.Name, "@"+ProviderName)` rejection.

    switch service.Kind {
    case "TraefikService":
        return fullServiceName(svcCtx, service, intstr.FromInt(0)), nil, nil // 690: returns the cross-namespace reference
    ...
    }
}

For comparison, the sibling resolver used for middleware and TLS references does carry the guard:

// pkg/provider/kubernetes/crd/kubernetes.go:1653-1668 — resolveReference (CORRECT)
func resolveReference(ctx context.Context, parentNs, ns, name string, crossProviderNamespaces []string, allowCrossNamespace bool) (string, error) {
    if strings.Contains(name, providerNamespaceSeparator) {
        if !allowCrossNamespace && strings.HasSuffix(name, providerNamespaceSeparator+ProviderName) {
            return "", errors.New("when allowCrossNamespace is disabled, @kubernetescrd references are disallowed") // 1656 — THE GUARD
        }
        ...
    }
    ...
}

The same guard is also present at `pkg/provider/kubernetes/crd/kubernetes_http.go:500` (`makeServersTransportKey`, HTTP) and `pkg/provider/kubernetes/crd/kubernetes_tcp.go:316` (`makeTCPServersTransportKey`, TCP, added by commit `67501cbe`). Only the service resolver `nameAndService` lacks it. ### Data flow An `IngressRoute` created by a tenant in namespace `attacker` declares a route service `{ name: "victim-backend@kubernetescrd", kind: TraefikService }`; the tenant controls this reference string. In `nameAndService`, because the name contains `@`, the same-namespace check at line 669 is skipped, and `isCrossProviderNamespaceAllowed(nil, "attacker")` returns `true` under the default `nil` allowlist, so no rejection fires. `fullServiceName` then resolves the reference to the victim namespace's `TraefikService`, and the attacker's HTTP router is generated and bound to the victim's backend. At runtime the attacker's `Host(...)` route forwards to namespace `victim`'s backend pods. ### Default reachability `AllowCrossNamespace` defaults to `false` (`pkg/provider/kubernetes/crd/kubernetes.go:57`, never set to `true` by any `SetDefaults`), so the isolation this bug bypasses is on by default. `CrossProviderNamespaces` defaults to `nil`, and `isCrossProviderNamespaceAllowed` returns `true` for a `nil` allowlist (`pkg/provider/kubernetes/crd/kubernetes.go:1645-1651`), so the only check `nameAndService` applies to an `@`-name is inert by default. The attacker needs only namespace-scoped RBAC to create an `IngressRoute` or `TraefikService` in their own namespace (the standard hard-multi-tenant Traefik setup) and knowledge of the target `TraefikService`'s namespace and name. ### PoC A table-style harness was added to the CRD provider package. It defines a victim `TraefikService` (`backend` in namespace `victim`, backed by a real endpoint) and an attacker `IngressRoute` (namespace `attacker`) that references it via `victim-backend@kubernetescrd`, plus a control route that references a victim `Middleware` via `victim-mw@kubernetescrd`. The control route is given a valid local service so that the only reason it could be dropped is the cross-namespace middleware guard. The provider is run with `AllowCrossNamespace: false` and `CrossProviderNamespaces: nil` (both defaults).

$ go test -run TestPoC_CrossNamespaceServiceBypass ./pkg/provider/kubernetes/crd/ -v

HTTP routers:  [attacker-attacker-svc-route-7df4381938699bd21215]
HTTP services: [victim-whoami-victim-80 victim-backend]
CONTROL OK: cross-ns MIDDLEWARE ref (victim-mw@kubernetescrd) rejected -> router dropped
BYPASS CONFIRMED: attacker router bound to cross-ns service "victim-backend" despite AllowCrossNamespace=false

The control route (middleware reference) is dropped even though it has a valid local service, confirming that the isolation control is active for middlewares; the service route survives and its `Service` field resolves to `victim-backend`, with the victim's services pulled into the generated configuration and reachable through the attacker's router. The harness also runs two corroborating cases. With `AllowCrossNamespace=false` and `CrossProviderNamespaces=["someotherns"]` (an allowlist that excludes the attacker), the service reference is blocked, which proves that the only gate ever applied to an `@kubernetescrd` service name is `crossProviderNamespaces` (inert by default) and that `allowCrossNamespace=false` is never consulted. With `AllowCrossNamespace=true`, both the service and middleware references are accepted, as expected when isolation is intentionally disabled. ### Impact In a multi-tenant cluster relying on `allowCrossNamespace=false` for namespace isolation, a tenant confined to their own namespace can attach their own router (their own `Host` rule and entrypoint) to another tenant's `TraefikService` backend, exposing an otherwise internal-only service on the data plane under the attacker's hostname, and can route or mirror traffic to another namespace's backend that they should not be able to reference.

CVE-2026-71325 (GCVE-0-2026-71325)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-08-06 16:24 – Updated: 2026-08-07 17:09

Title

Traefik: `allowCrossNamespace=false` bypass via `@kubernetescrd` TraefikService backendRef

Summary

Traefik is an open-source edge router that makes publishing services a fun and easy experience. Prior to 2.11.54, 3.6.25, and 3.7.10, cross-namespace @kubernetescrd references are not rejected for TraefikService backend references resolved by the service resolver. A tenant confined by RBAC to a single namespace can therefore bind its own router to a TraefikService owned by another namespace and expose or reroute that namespace's backend, defeating the namespace isolation allowCrossNamespace=false is meant to enforce. This issue is fixed in version 2.11.54, 3.6.25, 3.7.10.

Prior to 2.11.54, 3.6.25, and 3.7.10, cross-namespace @kubernetescrd references are not rejected for TraefikService backend references resolved by the service resolver. A tenant confined by RBAC to a single namespace can therefore bind its own router to a TraefikService owned by another namespace and expose or reroute that namespace\u0027s backend, defeating the namespace isolation allowCrossNamespace=false is meant to enforce. This issue is fixed in version 2.11.54, 3.6.25, 3.7.10."
