JFrog Security Research recently discovered and disclosed multiple CVEs in the highly popular Chaos engineering platform – Chaos-Mesh. The discovered CVEs, which we’ve named Chaotic Deputy are CVE-2025-59358, CVE-2025-59360, CVE-2025-59361 and CVE-2025-59359. The last three Chaotic Deputy CVEs are critical severity (CVSS 9.8) vulnerabilities which can be easily exploited by in-cluster attackers to run arbitrary code on any pod in the cluster, even in the default configuration of Chaos-Mesh.

This is an ongoing incident and updates will be provided as more information is confirmed.

Security issues in software development often stem not from developers’ lack of concern but from a fundamental disconnect between development and security teams.

That’s rare validation in a market where many vendors don’t even make the cut for inclusion.
