Skipper Unintended Proxy or Intermediary (Confused Deputy) Vulnerability - CVE-2026-24470
Skipper is an HTTP router and reverse proxy for service composition. Prior to version 0.24.0 when running Skipper as an Ingress controller users with permissions to create an Ingress and a Service of type ExternalName can create routes that enable them to use Skipper39s network access to reach internal services. Version 0.24.0 disables Kubernetes ExternalName by default. As a workaround developers can allow list targets of an ExternalName and allow list via regular expressions.
