Release Notes

cert-manager/cert-manager (cert-manager)

v1.20.3

Compare Source

cert-manager is the easiest way to automatically manage certificates in Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters.

This patch release fixes a security issue (GHSA-8rvj-mm4h-c258, HIGH) where the default cert-manager-edit aggregate ClusterRole granted namespace users permission to create ACME Challenge and Order resources directly. A user who could create a Challenge referencing a ClusterIssuer could supply attacker-controlled solver configuration while cert-manager loaded credentials from the ClusterIssuer's namespace, bypassing Issuer solver selectors (dnsZones, dnsNames, matchLabels). With the acme-dns provider specifically, this could disclose DNS credentials to an attacker-controlled endpoint.

This release also removes the issuer owner reference from Challenges which was blocking Challenge garbage collection, and updates Go to fix reported CVEs.

All users should upgrade.

[!WARNING]
Potentially breaking change: The cert-manager-edit aggregate ClusterRole no longer grants create for challenges.acme.cert-manager.io or create, patch, update for orders.acme.cert-manager.io. These resources are internal to cert-manager's ACME workflow and are not intended to be created or modified directly by users. If you have tooling or workflows that create Challenge or Order resources directly (outside of the normal Certificate → CertificateRequest → Order → Challenge flow), you will need to grant those permissions explicitly.

Bug or Regression

• Security (HIGH): Remove Challenge create and Order create, patch, update verbs from the cert-manager-edit aggregate ClusterRole (GHSA-8rvj-mm4h-c258). (#​8940, @​wallrj-cyberark)
• Remove issuer owner reference from challenges blocking challenge garbage collection (#​8759, @​cert-manager-bot)

Other (Cleanup or Flake)

• Bump go to 1.26.3, other deps to fix several govulncheck issues (#​8789, @​SgtCoDFish)
• Update Go to v1.26.4 to fix CVE-2026-27145, CVE-2026-42504, and CVE-2026-42507 (#​8926, @​wallrj-cyberark)

v1.20.2

Compare Source

cert-manager is the easiest way to automatically manage certificates in Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters.

v1.20.2 fixes invalid YAML generated in the Helm chart when both webhook.config
and webhook.volumes are defined, and bumps Go to 1.26.2 along with dependencies
to address reported vulnerabilities.

Changes by Kind

Bug or Regression

• Helm: Fix invalid YAML generated when both webhook.config and webhook.volumes are defined. (#​8665, @​cert-manager-bot)

Other (Cleanup or Flake)

• Bump go dependencies with reported vulnerabilities (#​8704, @​erikgb)
• Bump go to 1.26.2 (#​8703, @​erikgb)

v1.20.1

Compare Source

cert-manager is the easiest way to automatically manage certificates in Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters.

v1.20.1 fixes an issue for OpenShift users that has to do with the finalizer RBAC, bumps gRPC to address a reported non-affecting vulnerability, and fixes a duplicate parentRef bug when both issuer config and annotations are present (Gateway API).

Bug or Regression

• Fixed duplicate parentRef bug when both issuer config and annotations are present. (#​8658, @​hjoshi123)
• Add missing issuer finalizer RBAC to the order controller to support owner references. This was preventing OpenShift users from being able to upgrade to v1.20.0. (#​8655, @​erikgb)
• Bump google.golang.org/grpc to fix vulnerability reported by scanners. This isn't a vulnerability that affects cert-manager, but we are bumping it because it is reported by scanners. (#​8657, @​erikgb)
