Overview

renovate is a dependency updater.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Open Redirect in the Docker registry pagination handling, which follows the URL given in an HTTP Link header while still attaching the registry credentials, without confining the follow to the original origin. An attacker operating or having compromised a container registry can capture those credentials by returning a Link header pointing at a host they control, which the tag and digest lookups then request with the credentials attached. This requires the project to have Docker image dependencies resolved against that registry, and the exposure is reduced by the fact that a compromised registry already receives those credentials on the initial authenticated requests.
