    Package        : docker-registry     Version        : 2.6.2~ds1-2+deb10u1     CVE ID         : CVE-2023-2253     Debian Bug     : 1035956

    A flaw was found in the '/v2/_catalog' endpoint in     'distribution/distribution', which accepts a parameter to control     the maximum number of records returned (query string: 'n').
    This vulnerability allows a malicious user to     submit an unreasonably large value for 'n',     causing the allocation of a massive string array,     possibly causing a denial of service through excessive use of memory.

    For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version     2.6.2~ds1-2+deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your docker-registry packages.
