Description

runc through 1.0.0-rc9 has Incorrect Access Control leading to Escalation of Privileges, related to libcontainer/rootfs_linux.go. To exploit this, an attacker must be able to spawn two containers with custom volume-mount configurations, and be able to run custom images. (This vulnerability does not affect Docker due to an implementation detail that happens to block the attack.)

Affected configurations

• linuxfoundation runc (<= 0.1.1) • linuxfoundation runc 1.0.0 • debian debian linux 9.0 • debian debian linux 10.0 • opensuse leap 15.1 • canonical ubuntu linux 18.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 19.10 • redhat openshift container platform 4.1 • redhat openshift container platform 4.2
