CVE-2025-24882 is a medium-severity improper input validation vulnerability in github.com/regclient/regclient (go), affecting versions < 0.7.1. It is fixed in 0.7.1.
Impact A malicious registry could return a different digest for a pinned manifest without detection. Patches This has been fixed in the v0.7.1 release. Workarounds After running a regclient.ManifestGet, the returned digest can be compared to the requested digest.
The application does not adequately validate input before processing it, allowing unexpected values to reach sensitive code paths. Typical impact: varies by context: data corruption, logic bypass, or denial of service.
CVE-2025-24882 has a CVSS score of 5.2 (Medium). The vector is network-reachable, high privileges required, and user interaction required. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment.
A fixed version is available (0.7.1). Upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.
go
github.com/regclient/regclient (< 0.7.1)github.com/regclient/regclient → 0.7.1 (go)Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter instead of chasing every advisory.
Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether CVE-2025-24882 is reachable in your applications. Explore open-source security for your team.

Yes. CVE-2025-24882 is fixed in 0.7.1. Upgrade to this version or later.
Whether CVE-2025-24882 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
Upgrade github.com/regclient/regclient to 0.7.1 or later.
