Mitigation checklist

Recommended fix / mitigation

To mitigate this issue, restrict network access to the pods running the `multicluster-observability-addon` to only trusted internal components. Implement network policies within your Kubernetes environment to limit inbound connections to the affected pods on ports 6060 and 8443 from untrusted sources. This operational control reduces the attack surface by preventing unauthorized access to the unauthenticated debug endpoints.
