A flaw was found in the helm package. The ‘getHostByName’ is a Helm template function introduced in Helm v3 and can accept a hostname and return an IP address for that hostname. To get the IP address, the function performs a DNS lookup. The DNS lookup happens when used with ‘helm install|upgrade|template’ or when the Helm SDK is used to render a chart. Information passed into the chart can be disclosed to the DNS servers used to look up the IP address. For example, a malicious chart could inject getHostByName into a chart to disclose values to a malicious DNS server.
