CVE-2023-40453
MEDIUMDocker Machine < 0.16.2 - Escape Sequence Injection and Denial of Service via Crafted Version Data
Title source: llmDescription
Docker Machine through 0.16.2 allows an attacker, who has control of a worker node, to provide crafted version data, which might potentially trick an administrator into performing an unsafe action (via escape sequence injection), or might have a data size that causes a denial of service to a bastion node. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
