Executive Summary

Threat Score
50/100CAUTION
Reputation
RELIABLE

This image carries significant risk; production deployment is highly discouraged without strict compensating controls. An attacker could cause Denial of Service (crash or memory exhaustion) by sending crafted network packets to the Kafka container, exploiting vulnerabilities like CVE-2026-33846 and CVE-2026-28388. Mitigation is possible by disabling unused TLS features or using network segmentation to restrict access to trusted peers only. Note: Some findings, such as CVE-2026-28388, only apply when specific OpenSSL flags (e.g., X509_V_FLAG_USE_DELTAS) are enabled, which may not be the case in this container's default configuration.
