cri-tools misreads certain tags as self‑closing

published 1 month ago
Summary

The cri-tools component can treat some tags that have unquoted attributes ending with a slash (/) as if they close themselves. This can lead to incorrect parsing of data and cause unexpected behavior in tools that rely on this parsing. Upgrade to the latest version of cri-tools, where the parsing logic has been corrected.

What to do
  • Update cleanstart cri-tools to version 1.29.0-r5.
