PR:H reflects mandatory OCI registry write/push access; no confidentiality impact because the attacker injects deployment config rather than reading secrets.

DescriptionCVE.org

Doco-CD is a GitOps continuous delivery tool that automatically deploys and updates Docker Compose projects/services and Swarm stacks. Prior to version 0.90.1, a trust-boundary flaw in OCI artifact verification allowed artifact-provided deployment config to influence the policy used to verify that same artifact. When global OCI signature verification was enabled via OCI_TRUST_POLICY (enabled: true), an attacker with write access to the configured OCI tag could publish an unsigned or improperly signed artifact containing .doco-cd.yml with oci.verify: false. This could cause signature verification to be bypassed and untrusted deployment content to be applied. This primarily impacts users deploying from OCI artifacts where deployment config is read from artifact contents (for example, poll/webhook flows without trusted inline deployment overrides). The issue is fixed by enforcing a strict trust boundary and no-downgrade behavior. First, artifact-contained .doco-cd.yml is treated as untrusted for OCI trust-policy override decisions. Second, if global OCI_TRUST_POLICY.enabled is true, per-deployment oci.verify: false cannot disable verification. Some workarounds are available. Do not source deployment config from untrusted OCI artifact contents. Use trusted inline POLL_CONFIG.deployments and avoid relying on artifact-contained trust-policy overrides. Restrict write/push permissions for OCI repositories/tags used by doco-cd. Prefer immutable digest pinning and protected release/tag workflows. Monitor for unexpected artifact digest changes and failed/suspicious verification events.

AnalysisAI

OCI artifact signature verification bypass in Doco-CD prior to v0.90.1 allows an attacker with write access to a monitored OCI registry tag to circumvent the global OCI_TRUST_POLICY enforcement and deploy unsigned or improperly signed artifacts. By publishing an artifact containing a crafted .doco-cd.yml with oci.verify: false, the attacker exploits a circular trust dependency - the tool reads per-deployment config from artifact contents before verifying that artifact - causing signature checking to be disabled for that same artifact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Three specific conditions must all be true for exploitation: (1) The target Doco-CD instance must have global OCI signature verification explicitly enabled via OCI_TRUST_POLICY with enabled: true - if this policy is disabled or absent, there is no verification to bypass; (2) The attacker must have write/push access to the specific OCI registry tag or repository that the Doco-CD instance is configured to poll or receive webhooks for; (3) The affected deployment flow must source its deployment configuration from artifact-contained .doco-cd.yml files rather than from trusted inline POLL_CONFIG.deployments overrides. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 6.5 score and PR:H vector accurately reflect the key limiting factor: write/push access to the OCI repository or tag being monitored is required, which meaningfully restricts casual exploitation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade Doco-CD to version 0.90.1, which enforces a no-downgrade trust boundary ensuring that artifact-contained .doco-cd.yml cannot disable OCI signature verification when OCI_TRUST_POLICY.enabled is true. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Threat intelligence, references, and detailed analysis are available after sign-in.
