pkg/assetsis linked intokops-controllerandnodeup, but it also carried two CLI-only pieces that pull ingo-containerregistryand, transitively,docker/cli:kops get assets --copyimage/file copy machinerycrane.Digest()call that pins images by digestThis moves the copy machinery into a new
pkg/assets/assetcopypackage (imported only by the CLI) and turns digest resolution into an injectable hook that onlycmd/kopswires up. When no resolver is set,RemapImageskips digest pinning, which already matched behavior wheneverImageDigestwas off orKOPS_BASE_URLwas set.Result:
go-containerregistryanddocker/cliare gone from thekops-controllerandnodeupbinaries and their SBOMs, so registry client CVEs (e.g. CVE-2025-15558 indocker/cli) stop showing up in scans of binaries that never talk to a registry. Binaries shrink about 1.5MB (kops-controller) and 1.2MB (nodeup)./cc @rifelpet @ameukam
