Severity ?
7.1 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
cosign's `cosign verify-attestaton --type` can report a false positive if any attestation exists
Details

cosign verify-attestation used with the --type flag will report a false positive verification when:

  • There is at least one attestation with a valid signature
  • There are NO attestations of the type being verified (--type defaults to "custom")

This can happen when signing with a standard keypair and with "keyless" signing with Fulcio. Users should upgrade to cosign version 1.10.1 or greater for a patch. Currently the only workaround is to upgrade.
