What is CVE-2024-35192?

CVE-2024-35192 is a medium-severity vulnerability in aquasecurity trivy, published on 20 May 2024. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

Trivy is a security scanner. Prior to 0.51.2, if a malicious actor is able to trigger Trivy to scan container images from a crafted malicious registry, it could result in the leakage of credentials for legitimate registries such as AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR), Google Cloud Artifact/Container Registry, or Azure Container Registry (ACR). These tokens can then be used to push/pull images from those registries to which the identity/user running Trivy has access. Systems are not affected if the default credential provider chain is unable to obtain valid credentials. This vulnerability only applies when scanning container images directly from a registry. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.51.2.

Weakness: CWE-522
