Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The Tempo Operator's gateway component failed to consistently apply namespace-scoped redaction on some query API response paths when query RBAC was enabled, allowing an authenticated user to read span attributes belonging to other tenants' namespaces.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The Tempo Operator's gateway component has a tenant isolation bypass vulnerability where namespace-scoped redaction is inconsistently applied to query API responses when query RBAC is enabled. This allows an authenticated user to read span attributes from other tenants' namespaces, violating multi-tenant data isolation boundaries.

MitigationEnable and properly configure query RBAC to ensure all query API response paths consistently apply namespace-scoped redaction; review and test tenant isolation in multi-tenant deployments.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Tempo Operator installation
    Check for the presence of Tempo Operator in the cluster by running `kubectl get pods -n <namespace> | grep tempo` or checking for the Tempo custom resource definitions with `kubectl get crd | grep tempo`
    Affected if Tempo Operator gateway component is present in the environment
  2. Determine Tempo Operator version
    Run `kubectl get tempo <tempo-instance-name> -n <namespace> -o jsonpath='{.spec.images}'` or check the operator deployment image tag with `kubectl get deployment -n <namespace> -l app.kubernetes.io/name=tempo-operator -o jsonpath='{.items[0].spec.template.spec.containers[0].image}'`
    Affected if Installed version falls within the affected version range for this CVE (compare against known affected versions if available)
  3. Verify query RBAC is enabled
    Check the Tempo CR configuration for query RBAC settings: `kubectl get tempo <tempo-instance-name> -n <namespace> -o jsonpath='{.spec.query}'` or inspect the gateway configuration for RBAC-related flags in the deployment
    Affected if Query RBAC is explicitly enabled in the Tempo Operator configuration
  4. Confirm multi-tenant deployment
    Review tenant configuration by checking for multiple tenant custom resources or namespace-based tenant isolation: `kubectl get tenants -n <namespace>` or examine the `spec.tenants` section of the Tempo CR
    Affected if Multiple tenants are configured using namespace-based isolation in a multi-tenant deployment
  5. Inspect gateway query API response handling
    Review gateway logs for tenant isolation indicators or test query API responses between different tenants using authenticated requests to observe if cross-tenant attribute leakage occurs
    Affected if Query responses from one tenant contain span attributes from another tenant's namespace

The environment is affected if Tempo Operator with a vulnerable gateway version is deployed with query RBAC enabled in a multi-tenant configuration where tenant isolation can be bypassed.
