Starting in version 0.10.0 and prior to version 1.20.3, malcontent could be made to expose Docker registry credentials if it scanned a specially crafted OCI image reference. malcontent uses google/go-containerregistry for OCI image pulls, which by default uses the Docker credential keychain. A malicious registry could return a `WWW-Authenticate` header redirecting token authentication to an attacker-controlled endpoint, causing credentials to be sent to that endpoint. Version 1.20.3 fixes the issue by defaulting to anonymous auth for OCI pulls.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","score":6.5},"cwes":["CWE-522"],"references":["https://github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent/commit/538ed00cdc639d687a4bd1e843a2be0428a3b3e7","https://github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent/security/advisories/GHSA-9m43-p3cx-w8j5"],"products":["chainguard:malcontent"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:22:27.261130201+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-24845","score":0.00375,"percentile":0.31476,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-9m43-p3cx-w8j5","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-9m43-p3cx-w8j5","summary":"malcontent OCI image pull credential exfiltration via malicious registry token realm","modified":"2026-02-19T20:41:00.534391Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent","ranges":[">=0.10.0 <1.20.3"],"fixed":["1.20.3"]}]},{"id":"GO-2026-4392","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2026-4392","summary":"malcontent OCI image pull credential exfiltration via malicious registry token realm in github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent","modified":"2026-02-19T20:41:00.534391Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/chainguard-dev/bincapz","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/chainguard-dev/bincapz","ranges":[">=0.10.0"],"fixed":[]},{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent","ranges":["<1.20.3"],"fixed":["1.20.3"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
