Which Alpine Linux flaws are most likely to be used?
Ranked by the latest exploit-likelihood forecast: the chance each flaw is used in an attack in the next 30 days. A high severity score on its own doesn't tell you that. Flaws shared by many other makers' products are left out.
- 6.3%CVE-2019-5021Critical
Versions of the Official Alpine Linux Docker images (since v3.3) contain a NULL password for the `root` user.
- 3.5%CVE-2018-1000849High
Alpine Linux version Versions prior to 2.6.10, 2.7.6, and 2.10.1 contains a Other/Unknown vulnerability in apk-tools (Alpine Linux' package manager) that can result in Remote Code Execution.
- 3.2%CVE-2017-9669High
A heap overflow in apk (Alpine Linux's package manager) allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, or achieve code execution by crafting a malicious APKINDEX.tar.gz file.
- 3.2%CVE-2017-9671High
A heap overflow in apk (Alpine Linux's package manager) allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, or achieve code execution, by crafting a malicious APKINDEX.tar.gz file with a bad pax header block.
- 1.3%CVE-2022-22704Critical
The zabbix-agent2 package before 5.4.9-r1 for Alpine Linux sometimes allows privilege escalation to root because the design incorrectly expected that systemd would (in effect) determine part of the configuration.

1 new flaw affects software Acme tracks
Versions of the Official Alpine Linux Docker images (since v3.3) contain a NULL password for the `root` user. This vulnerability appears to be the result of a regression introduced in December of 2015. Due to the nature of this issue, systems deployed using affected versions of the Alpine Linux container which utilize Linux PAM, or some other mechanism which uses the system shadow file as an authentication database, may accept a NULL password for the `root` user.
