kubernetes-csi-external-snapshotter and opa-fips may stall with many certificates

published 9 days ago
Summary

Both the snapshotter and OPA packages can be asked to verify a very large list of intermediate certificates. When this happens they may spend excessive time processing, which can slow down or temporarily stop the service. Apply the available updates or configure the system to limit the number of certificates passed for verification.

What to do
  • Update cleanstart kubernetes-csi-external-snapshotter to version 8.7.0-r0.
  • Update cleanstart opa-fips to version 1.21.2-r0.
