      HIGHCVE-2026-35205

      Helm is a package manager for Charts for Kubernetes. In Helm versions >=4.0.0 and <=4.1.3, Helm will install plugins missing provenance (.prov file) when signature verification is required.

      // impact

      The bug allows plugin authors to omit provenance (signing) data from plugins, bypassing plugin signature verification upon plugin install/update.

      Notably, plugin hooks will be executed as designed on the installed plugin, enabling a malicious plugin to execute arbitrary code.

      // patches

      This issue has been patched in Helm v4.1.4

      Installing/updating a plugin with missing provenance will error if signature verification is required.

      // workarounds

      Users may manually validate that a plugin archive is not missing provenance data (.prov file) before installation.
