Broken vulnerability-report links leave part of the running platform unassessed. Cached results can also remain tied to outdated images or workload labels.
What
Repair report links and cache refreshes with a scanner update that includes upstream parser fixes and the read-only access needed for refreshes. Keep rollout blocked until storage compatibility and the remaining dependency-security assessment are accepted.
The upstream regression reproduces the wrong-namespace references on v0.3.430, then passes on v0.3.566 for full-only and full-plus-relevant scans. It exercises the actual scanner repository's StoreCVE and StoreCVESummary paths against its fake API server, reads the published references back and checks that the summary remains in the workload namespace with its scan timestamp. The full upstream repository race suite passes. This is predeployment behavior evidence, not a claim of live coverage.
The immutable scanner digest verifies with cosign against the GitHub OIDC issuer, kubescape/kubevuln main workflow and exact release source 45099c097fe5470b4a177520eac7de9ee3bfdd80. Chart 1.40.5 and the compatibility storage remain pinned. The existing Platform render regression failed for the old image and missing watch permissions, then passed after both changes. Local and production KSail validations exited zero and explicitly checked Kubescape; unrelated OCI chart renders on this host reported unavailable credential helpers, so those renders are not counted as local evidence.
Authorization evidence for the one changed ledger entry: the kubevuln ClusterRole already has get on namespace, pod, replicationcontroller, deployment, replicaset, statefulset, daemonset, job and cronjob objects. The newer scanner's EnableLabelsCacheInvalidation uses informers for those exact types. The three added rules grant only list/watch for these types, preserving all existing writes and Secret permissions. The effective render regression checks all nine read/watch grants. The ledger moves from 9c8af3c19edf7280701bae3bcd4ac1cd5e976e60170cacb027ea03fa2acbe973 to 24e4b6d4cdf4deceadc14022c06e6aed89656b6628e6a63746e0a29f71f6ecbe; no other entry or validator changes. Validator unit tests and its full production render pass using the audited kubectl v1.36.2 renderer.
#5403 and #4263 stay open until a successful live scan proves current-image freshness, coherent metadata, resolving references, matching full-payload counts and complete coverage. No missing result is treated as a zero finding.

The change pins kubevuln to version v0.3.566 by digest and adds read-only list and watch permissions for specified Kubernetes resources. It updates a persistence test to check the image pin and required access, and adds documentation on vulnerability-reference resolution and post-rollout summary checks.

comparisons for apiGroups, resources, and verbs, so it only passes when the
configured rule grants the required API group, the exact RESOURCE, and all three
required verbs.

codex:no-gate@181005e. The acknowledged 00:49:44Z request still shows Running, with no update since 00:50:03Z and no substantive verdict or finding after more than an hour. The generous 30-minute acknowledged window has expired. A fresh complete read and review-no-gate-guard returned ADMIT. This records a stalled provider, not a successful review; the next provider must deliver a clean review before promotion.
The current head 181005e4a348204b3f5f7235815344bde82c3477 has a completed, finding-free Cursor Bugbot review, confirmed by check 121963207245 and review 5661404484. The earlier CodeRabbit finding is fixed and its thread is resolved/outdated; no new review is requested. All independently readable required gates pass, while native code-quality remains UNVERIFIED through the API.
Delivery is parked behind the live, queued storage adoption #5420. Both PRs replace the same authorization-ledger entry for the Kubescape HelmRelease: each was validated against the preceding storage configuration. After #5420 merges, integrate current main, regenerate the combined entry through the existing validator and rerun current-head validation/review before enqueueing this repair. The PR body now makes that order explicit. This preserves the real gate rather than submitting conflicting approvals to the queue.
The scanner has not deployed through this PR, and #5403 remains open for fresh resolving references and paired-coverage verification.
Integrated the deployed #5420 base in signed head a37a3f3a2853fec805e57e4e15d104ff2a969f19. The existing validator generated the combined Kubescape approval record; its intentional mismatch was observed before applying the exact replacement, and the combined authorization and persistence checks now pass. The prior-head review does not clear this new commit; fresh CI is running.
Promotion remains held on #5419. Post-deployment evaluation found that the storage metadata reconciler refuses the deployed record representation and split records remain. The new scanner must not be treated as functional against that unresolved storage failure. No scan results have been deleted or reset, and #5403 remains open for native reference and paired-coverage acceptance.
Blocker:#5553 | upstream | last-verified 2026-11-07: #5553 is still open. Storage prerequisite #5419 closed and accepted. The published kubevuln scanner candidate this PR adopts still carries dependency advisories in source and binary audits; adoption waits on their remediation or substantiated disposition in #5553. Then refresh main, fresh CI, review and user evaluation before promotion.
The storage prerequisite #5419 is now accepted: the deployed repair retained the existing volume, reconciled stored metadata and accepted a later real summary update. That removes the earlier storage hold on this scanner repair.
Signed head 31435e592f9903ea7cc3dd16a6a334ec78f5be57 integrates current main and preserves the accepted storage image. The combined permission validator and its tests pass, as does the rendered scanner regression. Both schema validations checked Kubescape and exited zero; unrelated chart renders skipped locally are not counted as validation evidence. Fresh native CI, independent review and the published scanner's security audit remain required before promotion. #5403 and #4263 remain open for complete live scan/reference acceptance.
Native checks at 31435e592f9903ea7cc3dd16a6a334ec78f5be57 are settled without failure. The former storage prerequisite is resolved, but the published scanner candidate has not passed its separate security acceptance: source and binary audits report dependency findings that still require remediation or a substantiated disposition. No finding has been ignored or treated as clean. This PR stays draft while that work proceeds, and no rollout has been requested.
At d8aa09646d8373c43c0f761ad8e8b34f6b47c24e, reported CI is settled: 40 successful checks and 11 skipped checks, with no failed or unsettled checks. Skipped work is not counted as validation.
Local validation covers the immutable chart render and informer permissions, the exact authorization approval fingerprint, authorization race tests, and both normal schema commands with their recorded OCI/offline limitations. The released scanner source's seven affected packages pass 1,565 race-checked cases with no skips. I reviewed the full candidate for correctness and simplification; the informer grant is limited to list/watch on the nine already-readable resource types, with no Secret or write grant.
The actual-image audit and proposed Docker call-path dispositions are recorded in #5553. The newly verified storage compatibility requirement remains a promotion/deployment blocker. This request is for independent review of the current candidate and its documented security reasoning; it is not a readiness or runtime-recovery claim.
