CVE-2026-75625
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
Kraken agents fail to verify peer-to-peer downloaded blobs against their requested SHA-256 digest before committing to the content-addressable cache, relying only on CRC32 checksums for piece validation. Attackers on the agent-to-agent path or malicious peers can supply substituted content with forged CRC32 corrections that passes per-piece checks, poisoning the cache with attacker-chosen container image layers or manifests that are re-seeded and executed by other hosts.

Los atacantes en la ruta de agente a agente o los pares maliciosos pueden suministrar contenido sustituido con correcciones CRC32 falsificadas que pasan las verificaciones por pieza, envenenando la caché con capas de imagen de contenedor o manifiestos elegidos por el atacante que son resembrados y ejecutados por otros hosts."
