Description
A flaw was found in operator-sdk-builder. The containers-policy.json configuration file defaults to insecureAcceptAnything for container image registries that are not explicitly listed. This default setting causes signature verification to be entirely skipped for images pulled from these unlisted registries, which could allow for the use of untrusted or malicious container images.
