# Docker patches two-year-old Hub flaw that let users push images as others

Docker fixed a critical vulnerability in Docker Hub, its public image registry, that had gone unnoticed for roughly two years and allowed an attacker to push images under another user's account. The flaw threatened the integrity of container images that countless organizations pull and deploy, a key link in the software supply chain. Docker has since patched the issue, but the long exposure window means users should verify the provenance of images they rely on.
