NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream zot package and not the zot package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in Go. When FIPS mode is enabled on a system, container runtimes may incorrectly handle certain file paths due to improper validation in the containers/common Go library. This flaw allows an attacker to exploit symbolic links and trick the system into mounting sensitive host directories inside a container. This issue also allows attackers to access critical host files, bypassing the intended isolation between containers and the host system.
