EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
Real-World Exposure
github.com/ctfer-io/fullchainReal-time download stats are indexed for npm and PyPI packages. This vulnerability affects Go packages — download data is not available via public APIs for these ecosystems.
Description
Impact
Due to a mis-written NetworkPolicy, a malicious actor can pivot from a subverted application to any Pod out of the origin namespace. This breaks the security-by-default property expected as part of the deployment program, leading to a potential lateral movement.
Patch
Removing the inter-ns NetworkPolicy patches the vulnerability. If updates are not possible in production environments, we recommend to manually delete it and update as soon as possible.
Workaround
Given your context, delete the failing network policy that should be prefixed by inter-ns- in the target namespace.
You can use the following to delete all matching network policy. If unsure of the outcome, please do it manually.
for ns in $(kubectl get ns -o jsonpath='{.items[*].metadata.name}' | tr ' ' '\n' | grep '^ns-'); do
kubectl -n "$ns" get networkpolicy -o name \
| grep '^networkpolicy.networking.k8s.io/inter-ns-' \
| xargs -r kubectl -n "$ns" delete
done

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for github.com/ctfer-io/fullchain, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update github.com/ctfer-io/fullchain to 0.1.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-32769 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2026-32769 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to CVE-2026-32769. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2026-32769 in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds CVE-2026-32769 across Go dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
