Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.73%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Cloud Foundry Foundation GrootFS release 0.3.x versions prior to 0.30.0 do not validate DiffIDs, allowing specially crafted images to poison the grootfs volume cache. For example, this could allow an attacker to provide an image layer that GrootFS would consider to be the Ubuntu base layer.
