Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Cilium (github.com/cilium/cilium) versions before 1.11.16, from 1.12.0 before 1.12.9, and from 1.13.0 before 1.13.2 are affected. The issue only arises when an HTTP policy applies to multiple endpoints and an allow-all rule covers just one of them, which can let a wildcard rule bypass HTTP policies. Upgrade to 1.11.16, 1.12.9, 1.13.2 or later; as a workaround, rewrite HTTP rules so each endpoint is defined separately.
