Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Contrast before 1.12.1 is affected: a malicious host can supply a crafted LUKS2 volume to a pod VM using the secure persistent volume feature, and the guest opens it with an attacker-known key, so data written to it can be read by the attacker. Upgrade to Contrast 1.12.1 or later, which ships a cryptsetup version that rejects null keyslot ciphers; the source notes that later releases (1.13.0) add further hardening and integrity protection.

Written 1 Nov 2026.
