Findings

H2M1

identical on amd64, arm64 — one table describes both

CVE Sev CVSS Affects Description
GHSA-5rjg-fvgr-3xxf ↗ H 7.7 setuptools setuptools has a path traversal vulnerability in PackageIndex.download that leads to Arbitrary File Write
GHSA-6v7p-g79w-8964 ↗ H 7.5 msgpack MessagePack for Python: Out-of-bounds read / crash on Unpacker reuse after a caught error
GHSA-h35f-9h28-mq5c ↗ M 6.1 setuptools setuptools: MANIFEST.in exclusion bypass in sdist via Unicode normalization collision (NFC/NFD) on macOS APFS/HFS+

These are the findings of pip, which ships every tool in this project. kapsl reports and gates; it never edits an image to clear a finding.

Composition

default + git, g++, gcc, cc
runtime python
composes python, git, g++, gcc, cc

Some tools are only useful composed: a pip-installed CLI needs python as its runtime, bash pulls in coreutils. kapsl resolves that for you — -e git,python:flake8 composes explicitly.

Filled is granted to every invocation, outlined to some and not others — see per-subcommand below; the rest need --cap at the point of use.

seccomp tier

The syscall filter applied to this tool's entry point. Tools sharing an image do not share a tier.

Where a tool needs more for one subcommand only, kapsl scopes it there rather than granting it everywhere. Where it needs less, kapsl takes it away there too.
