CVE-2026-13451: A flaw was found in KServe. A namespace-scoped user with create/update permissions on InferenceService custom resources

A flaw was found in KServe. A namespace-scoped user with create/update permissions on InferenceService custom resources can exploit this vulnerability by providing a malicious storageUri. This Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability allows the storage-initializer init container to issue arbitrary outbound HTTP/HTTPS requests from inside the cluster. This can lead to information disclosure, including credential theft for the node's Identity and Access Management (IAM) role or access to internal cluster services.
