Summary

Flyte 2.0.1 through 2.0.51 contains a cleartext secret storage vulnerability that allows users with Pod read access to obtain secrets by reading init container environment variables. The embedded secret manager webhook writes base64-encoded FILE-mounted secret values into the SECRETS environment variable, letting principals without Secret store access decode them from the Pod spec.

Risk Assessment

Users with Pod read permissions can access sensitive secrets, leading to privilege escalation and potential system compromise. This may result in unauthorized access to protected resources.

Recommendation

Update Flyte to a version later than 2.0.51 if available, or modify configuration to prevent secrets from being stored in environment variables. Restrict Pod read access for unauthorized users.
