Descriptions

A flaw was found in crun where containers were incorrectly started with non-empty default permissions. A vulnerability was found in Moby (Docker Engine) where containers were started incorrectly with non-empty inheritable Linux process capabilities. This flaw allows an attacker with access to programs with inheritable file capabilities to elevate those capabilities to the permitted set when execve(2) runs.

Se encontró un fallo en crun donde los contenedores eran iniciados incorrectamente con permisos por defecto no vacíos. Se ha encontrado una vulnerabilidad en Moby (Docker Engine) donde los contenedores eran iniciados incorrectamente con capacidades de proceso Linux heredables no vacías. Este fallo permite a un atacante con acceso a programas con capacidades de archivo heredables elevar esas capacidades al conjunto permitido cuando se ejecuta execve(2)

The container-tools module contains tools for working with containers, notably podman, buildah, skopeo, and runc. Issues addressed include denial of service and privilege escalation vulnerabilities.
