Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the image import process. An attacker can interact with internal network infrastructure and perform error-based port scanning by supplying a crafted URL to the /images endpoint, which causes the daemon to make outbound requests to internal IP addresses, including loopback, private ranges, and cloud metadata endpoints. This is only exploitable if the attacker is an authenticated user with the can_create_images entitlement.
