SCA: security update for zotregistry.dev/zot, zotregistry.io/zot (GHSA-55r9-5mx9-qq7r)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 410599

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - zot is an OCI image registry. Prior to 2.1.0, the cache driver `GetBlob()` allows read access to any blob
 without access control check. If a Zot `accessControl` policy allows users read access to some
 repositories but restricts read access to other repositories and `dedupe` is enabled (it is enabled by
 default), then an attacker who knows the name of an image and the digest of a blob (that they do not have
 read access to), they may maliciously read it via a second repository they do have read access to. This
 attack is possible because [`ImageStore.CheckBlob()` calls `checkCacheBlob()`](https://github.com/project-
 zot/zot/blob/v2.1.0-rc2/pkg/storage/imagestore/imagestore.go#L1158-L1159) to find the blob a global cache
 by searching for the digest. If it is found, it is copied to the user requested repository with
 `copyBlob()`. The attack may be mitigated by configuring "dedupe": false in the "storage" settings. The
 vulnerability is fixed in 2.1.0. (CVE-2024-39897)
