CWE-20  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade dockerspawner to version 13.0.0 or higher.

Overview

dockerspawner is a Dockerspawner: A custom spawner for Jupyterhub.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Input Validation in the DockerSpawner.allowed_images configuration. This allow users to launch any pullable image, instead of restricting to only the single configured image, as intended.

Workaround

Explicitly setting DockerSpawner.allowed_images to a non-empty list containing only the default image will result in the intended default behavior:


c.DockerSpawner.image = "your-image"
c.DockerSpawner.allowed_images = ["your-image"]
