RELIABLE

This image is acceptable for production, but remediating the identified vulnerabilities is recommended to reduce the attack surface. The main concern is CVE-2026-78667 in the Go net/http stack, which Prometheus can reach through its exposed HTTP server and which can cause CPU exhaustion or denial of Prometheus web/API service via crafted Range headers. The exposed surface has 20 total findings, but only 1 is severity >=6.0, none are >=7.0, and the maximum exposed severity is 6.38. The 6 post-exploit-only findings have no severity >=6.0 and a maximum severity of 2.29, so they do not raise the verdict further. Trust signals are strong: the image is a reliable popular community image pinned by digest, but it is not official or verified.
