CVE-2017-14388

moderate-risk

Published 2017-11-13

Cloud Foundry Foundation GrootFS release 0.3.x versions prior to 0.30.0 do not validate DiffIDs, allowing specially crafted images to poison the grootfs volume cache. For example, this could allow an attacker to provide an image layer that GrootFS would consider to be the Ubuntu base layer.
