CVE-2017-1002101 – kubernetes: Volume security can be sidestepped with innocent emptyDir and subpath

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2017-1002101

In Kubernetes versions 1.3.x, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x and prior to versions 1.7.14, 1.8.9 and 1.9.4 containers using subpath volume mounts with any volume type (including non-privileged pods, subject to file permissions) can access files/directories outside of the volume, including the host's filesystem. En Kubernetes, en versiones 1.3.x, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x y en versiones anteriores a la 1.7.14, 1.8.9 y 1.9.4, los contenedores que emplean montajes de volumen subpath con cualquier tipo de volumen (incluyendo pods no privilegiados, dependientes de los permisos de archivo) pueden acceder a archivos/directorios fuera del volumen, incluyendo el sistema de archivos del host. It was found that volume security can be sidestepped with innocent emptyDir and subpath. This could give an attacker with access to a pod full control over the node host by gaining access to docker socket. • http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2020-04/msg00041.html https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:0475 https://github.com/bgeesaman/subpath-exploit https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/60813 https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2017-1002101 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1525130 • CWE-59: Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') •
