After my last post analyzing the NGINX #IngressNightmare vulnerability, I’m excited to share a new addition to my Kubernetes Security: Advanced Exploitation series!
Inspired by the excellent research from the Wiz team on CVE-2025-1974, I’ve created a hands-on lab that walks you through exploiting this issue step by step. You can try it out here:

This lab offers a safe environment to:
1. Reproduce the vulnerability
2. Understand how the exploit works
👉 https://github.com/Alevsk/dvka/blob/master/workshop/labs/ingress-nightmare/cve-2025-1974.py
3. Generate your own indicators of compromise (IOCs)
It’s a great way to deepen your Kubernetes security knowledge and gain hands-on experience with real-world exploitation techniques. Have fun learning, and feel free to share any thoughts or questions!
