QID 995790: GO (Go) Security Update for k8s.io/kubernetes (GHSA-35c7-w35f-xwgh)

Kube-proxy on Windows can unintentionally forward traffic to local processes listening on the same port (spec.ports[*].port) as a LoadBalancer Service when the LoadBalancer controller does not set the status.loadBalancer.ingress[].ip field. Clusters where the LoadBalancer controller sets the status.loadBalancer.ingress[].ip field are unaffected.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to a security breach or could affect integrity, availability, and confidentiality.
