Description
containerd is an open-source container runtime. Versions prior to 2.3.2, 2.2.5 and 2.1.9 contain a bug where the CRI plugin restores container.log from a checkpoint image without validating a symlinked path. This could result in reading an arbitrary file on the host via kubectl logs. This issue has been fixed in versions 2.3.2, 2.2.5 and 2.1.9.
Affected configurations
• linuxfoundation containerd (>= 2.1.0 < 2.1.9)
• linuxfoundation containerd (>= 2.2.0 < 2.2.5)
• linuxfoundation containerd (>= 2.3.0 < 2.3.2)
