Dirty-Frag-Kubernetes-PoC
→ View on GitHubDirty Frag is a proof-of-concept tool that demonstrates how an unprivileged Kubernetes Pod can exploit the Dirty Frag vulnerability (CVE-2026-43284) to achieve node-level code execution on Amazon EKS by corrupting in-memory cached pages of shared container image layers. Its primary use case is to illustrate the risks associated with privileged DaemonSets in Kubernetes clusters that share image layers, as it allows for direct execution of compromised binaries by these privileged workloads. Notable features include the ability to target any privileged DaemonSet, leveraging kernel page-cache corruption alongside the sharing of image layers, thereby exposing a significant security vulnerability in Kubernetes environments.
