Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Heimdall versions from 0.7.0-alpha before 0.17.11 are affected when used with the Envoy gRPC decision API. Path rules without wildcards can be bypassed by adding a query string to the request, because the query is mangled into the path and no longer matches the rule. This only leads to unintended access when heimdall uses an allow-all default rule, which heimdall 0.16.0 and later refuse to start with unless enforcement is explicitly disabled. Upgrade to heimdall 0.17.11.
