GHSA-mcj4-mphf-j9ff: github.com/aquasecurity/trivy (CVE-2026-55092)

Package	Ecosystem	Affected	Fixed in
github.com/aquasecurity/trivy	Go	<0.71.1	0.71.1

Machine-written summary

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

Trivy versions before 0.71.1 use the org.opencontainers.image.title annotation from a downloaded OCI artifact as the destination filename without validation. An attacker who can get Trivy to fetch a crafted artifact, for example through an overridden database, checks bundle, or module repository setting, can write files to arbitrary locations within the running user's permissions. Upgrade to Trivy 0.71.1 or later. Until then, only download artifacts from repositories you operate or trust.
