CVE-2014-8178  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-20  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable docker.io to version 1.8.3~ds1-1 or higher.

NVD Description

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

Docker Engine before 1.8.3 and CS Docker Engine before 1.6.2-CS7 do not use a globally unique identifier to store image layers, which makes it easier for attackers to poison the image cache via a crafted image in pull or push commands.
