Description Trevor Jay 2014-12-10 13:09:54 EST

Docker Inc. has reported that it is possible to spoof images on the central registry. From the report: 

"It has been discovered that Docker does not sufficiently validate Image IDs as provided either via 'docker load' or through registry communications. This allows for path traversal attacks, causing graph corruption and manipulation by malicious images, as well as repository spoofing attacks."
