Cilium vulnerable to information leakage via incorrect ReferenceGrant handling
Impact
When the Gateway API is enabled in Cilium, the absence of a check on the namespace in which a ReferenceGrant is created could result in Cilium gaining visibility of secrets (including certificates) and services across namespaces.
An attacker on an affected cluster can configure Cilium to use cluster secrets or communicate with services that it should not have access to.
Gateway API functionality is disabled by default.
Patches
This vulnerability is fixed in Cilium release 1.13.4.
Cilium versions <1.13 are not affected.
Workarounds
There is no workaround to this issue.
Acknowledgements
The Cilium community has worked together with members of Isovalent to prepare these mitigations. Special thanks to @meyskens for investigating and fixing the issue.

Cilium is a networking, observability, and security solution with an eBPF-based dataplane. Prior to version 1.13.4, when Gateway API is enabled in Cilium, the absence of a check on the namespace in which a ReferenceGrant is created could result in Cilium unintentionally gaining visibility of secrets (including certificates) and services across namespaces. An attacker on an affected cluster can leverage this issue to use cluster secrets that should not be visible to them, or communicate with services that they should not have access to. Gateway API functionality is disabled by default. This vulnerability is fixed in Cilium release 1.13.4. As a workaround, restrict the creation of `ReferenceGrant` resources to admin users by using Kubernetes RBAC.
