What the vulnerability does

01Description

Incorrect behavior order in the Gateway API listener-rule generation in Amazon AWS Load Balancer Controller before 3.4.2 might allow an authenticated remote user to intercept, spoof, or deny another namespace's gRPC traffic on a shared Gateway via a crafted HTTPRoute resource. To mitigate this issue, users should upgrade to version 3.4.2.
