"The version of soci-snapshotter installed on the remote host is prior to 0.16.0-1. It is, therefore, affected by
multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2DOCKER-2026-143 advisory.

    On Unix systems, opening a file in an os.Root improperly follows symlinks to locations outside of the Root
    when the final path component of the a path is a symbolic link and the path ends in /. For example,
    'root.Open(symlink/)' will open symlink even when symlink is a symbolic link pointing outside of the
    root. (CVE-2026-39822)

    Handshakes which used Encrypted Client Hello could be de-anonymized by a passive network observer due to a
    disclosure of pre-shared key identities in the unencrypted client hello. (CVE-2026-42505)

    A flaw was found in oras-go. The auth.Client in oras-go does not properly validate the scheme or host of
    the realm URL provided in a registry's WWW-Authenticate: Bearer challenge. A remote attacker, operating a
    malicious registry or performing a man-in-the-middle attack, could exploit this to perform Server-Side
    Request Forgery (SSRF) against internal networks, potentially disclosing sensitive information.
    Additionally, the flaw could lead to a Transport Layer Security (TLS) downgrade, causing user credentials
    to be sent over plaintext. (CVE-2026-48978)

    oras-go is a Go library for managing OCI artifacts. Prior to 2.6.2, the parseLink function in
    registry/remote/utils.go accepts an absolute URL from a registry-controlled Link response header without
    validating its scheme, host, or port. Tags, Referrers, and Repositories pagination operations then issue a
    GET request to the attacker-selected URL from the victim's network, allowing blind server-side request
    forgery against internal services. The response body is not returned to the attacker, but timing and error
    differences can reveal service reachability, and credentials may be attached when the credential store has
    an entry for the target host. Exploitation requires a victim to perform a pagination-based listing
    operation against a malicious registry. The maintainer identifies this report as a duplicate of
    GHSA-3hr5-mjrr-hfjh and states that remediation is consolidated in that earlier advisory. The consolidated
    issue is fixed in version 2.6.2. (CVE-2026-85732)
