Description

Currently the namespace-scoped CRD allows reference to secrets in other namespaces, which may enable namespace-scoped users to access secrets in unauthorized namespaces. Perhaps it's better to add webhooks to authorize users before referencing secrets.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the namespace-scoped CRD references secrets across namespaces and where authorization is currently enforced. Review the Kubernetes webhook entry points and related CRD handling; done means unauthorized cross-namespace secret references are rejected while permitted references continue to work.
