Summary
ingress-nginx vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling
Details

A security issue was discovered in ingress-nginx where the validating admission controller feature is subject to a denial of service condition. By sending large requests to the validating admission controller, an attacker can cause memory consumption, which may result in the ingress-nginx controller pod being killed or the node running out of memory.
