The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition while unpacking an image during an image pull. A remote attacker can trick the victim into using a specially crafted image and perform arbitrary modifications of the host file system, leading to its compromise.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-22872)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform code injection attacks.
