ibmcloud: exclude VPC instance metadata from noProxy - #10890
nikhilprajapati-world wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
Proxy installs sent IBM Cloud IMDS (169.254.169.254 and api.metadata.cloud.ibm.com) through the cluster proxy. Other clouds already exclude the link-local metadata address. Fixes OCPBUGS-126736 Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
The file pkg/util/proxyconfig/no_proxy.go is a component of the OpenShift Cluster Network Operator, responsible for calculating and merging the default noProxy configuration for a cluster [1][2]. The IP address 169.254.169.254 is included in the default noProxy list for several cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure, and OpenStack) because it is the standard link-local address used by cloud providers to access instance metadata services [1][3][4]. When this service is required, traffic must be directed to it directly rather than through a configured proxy [1]. The hostname api.metadata.cloud.ibm.com is not found in the standard implementation of pkg/util/proxyconfig/no_proxy.go within the OpenShift cluster-network-operator repository [1][2]. The operator handles platform-specific metadata hostnames for providers like GCP (e.g., metadata.google.internal) and Azure, but does not explicitly include the IBM Cloud metadata API in its generic default noProxy logic [1][3][4]. Users needing to bypass a proxy for this endpoint must typically add it manually to their cluster's Proxy configuration [1].

💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
The function MergeUserSystemNoProxy and the ProxyStatus reconciliation process are components within the OpenShift Cluster Network Operator, responsible for managing cluster-wide proxy configurations [1][2]. MergeUserSystemNoProxy This utility function merges user-supplied NoProxy settings (defined in the Proxy custom resource) with mandatory system-wide NoProxy settings to ensure proper cluster connectivity [1][3]. Specifically, it performs the following steps: - Loads install-config data from a cluster-wide ConfigMap [1][3]. - Includes default values such as 127.0.0.1, localhost,.svc, and.cluster.local [3][4]. - Adds mandatory network CIDRs, such as those found in Network.Status.ClusterNetwork and the machine CIDR from the install-config [1][3]. - Incorporates the internal API server URL if available from Infrastructure.Status [3]. - Appends any custom NoProxy values provided by the user in Proxy.Spec.NoProxy [1][4]. - Returns a single, comma-separated string containing the merged, unique list of NoProxy entries [1][3]. ProxyStatus Reconciliation The ProxyStatus reconciliation process is managed by a controller that observes changes to relevant cluster resources and updates the Proxy status subresource accordingly [2][5]. - Computation: The controller uses syncProxyStatus to calculate the effective NoProxy, HTTPProxy, and HTTPSProxy values [2]. If the user-defined NoProxy is not a wildcard, it invokes MergeUserSystemNoProxy to compute the final string [2]. - Synchronization: The controller compares the computed status with the existing Proxy.Status [2]. If there is a discrepancy, it issues an update request to the cluster API [2]. - Change Detection: To prevent stale status information, the controller is configured to watch changes not only for the Proxy resource and relevant ConfigMaps, but also for Network and Infrastructure resources [5]. This ensures that any changes to cluster networks or infrastructure that impact proxy settings trigger a re-reconciliation [5].

Sensitive Data Exposure
Reachability: Internal
Exploitability: Difficult
CWE: CWE-200 — Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor
Add the IBM Cloud exclusions to cluster-network-operator. The installer writes both entries to the initial Proxy.Status.NoProxy, but cluster-network-operator later recomputes and updates that status. Its merge logic omits 169.254.169.254 and api.metadata.cloud.ibm.com for IBM Cloud, so metadata requests can use the proxy.
