Alpine: multiple containerd packages: security update to 1.5.8-r0
medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 403897
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- The OCI Distribution Spec project defines an API protocol to facilitate and standardize the distribution
of content. In the OCI Distribution Specification version 1.0.0 and prior, the Content-Type header alone
was used to determine the type of document during push and pull operations. Documents that contain both
“manifests” and “layers” fields could be interpreted as either a manifest or an index in the absence of an
accompanying Content-Type header. If a Content-Type header changed between two pulls of the same digest, a
client may interpret the resulting content differently. The OCI Distribution Specification has been
updated to require that a mediaType value present in a manifest or index match the Content-Type header
used during the push and pull operations. Clients pulling from a registry may distrust the Content-Type
header and reject an ambiguous document that contains both “manifests” and “layers” fields or “manifests”
and “config” fields if they are unable to update to version 1.0.1 of the spec. (CVE-2021-41190)
