CVE-2017-11468
Docker Registry before 2.6.2 in Docker Distribution does not properly restrict the amount of content accepted from a user, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via the manifest endpoint.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.19%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
