Description

Security Fix(es):

  • A flaw was found in the way the DES/3DES cipher was used as part of the
    TLS/SSL protocol. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to recover some plaintext data by capturing large amounts of encrypted traffic between TLS/SSL server and client if the communication used a DES/3DES based ciphersuite. (CVE-2016-2183)

Bug Fix(es):

  • Running Quay in config mode now works in a disconnected option which doesn't require pulling resources from the Internet.
  • Quay's security scan endpoint is now enabled at startup for viewing results of Clair container image scans.
