high Nessus Plugin ID 128302

Language:

Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

This is a version update for podman to version 1.4.4 (bsc#1143386).

Additional changes by SUSE on top :

Remove fuse-overlayfs because it's (currently) an unsatisfied dependency on SLE (bsc#1143386)

Update libpod.conf to use correct infra_command

Update libpod.conf to use better versioned pause container

Update libpod.conf to use official kubic pause container

Update libpod.conf to match latest features set: detach_keys, lock_type, runtime_supports_json

Add podman-remote varlink client

Version update podman to v1.4.4: Features

- Podman now has greatly improved support for containers using multiple OCI runtimes. Containers now remember if they were created with a different runtime using
--runtime and will always use that runtime

- The cached and delegated options for volume mounts are now allowed for Docker compatability (#3340)

- The podman diff command now supports the --latest flag Bugfixes

- Fixed a bug where rootless Podman would attempt to use the entire root configuration if no rootless configuration was present for the user, breaking rootless Podman for new installations

- Fixed a bug where rootless Podman's pause process would block SIGTERM, preventing graceful system shutdown and hanging until the system's init send SIGKILL

- Fixed a bug where running Podman as root with sudo -E would not work after running rootless Podman at least once

- Fixed a bug where options for tmpfs volumes added with the --tmpfs flag were being ignored

- Fixed a bug where images with no layers could not properly be displayed and removed by Podman

- Fixed a bug where locks were not properly freed on failure to create a container or pod

- Fixed a bug where podman cp on a single file would create a directory at the target and place the file in it (#3384)

- Fixed a bug where podman inspect --format '{{.Mounts}}' would print a hexadecimal address instead of a container's mounts

- Fixed a bug where rootless Podman would not add an entry to container's /etc/hosts files for their own hostname (#3405)

- Fixed a bug where podman ps --sync would segfault (#3411)

- Fixed a bug where podman generate kube would produce an invalid ports configuration (#3408) Misc

- Updated containers/storage to v1.12.13

- Podman now performs much better on systems with heavy I/O load

- The --cgroup-manager flag to podman now shows the correct default setting in help if the default was overridden by libpod.conf

- For backwards compatability, setting
--log-driver=json-file in podman run is now supported as an alias for --log-driver=k8s-file. This is considered deprecated, and json-file will be moved to a new implementation in the future ([#3363](https://github.com/containers/libpo\ d/issues/3363))

- Podman's default libpod.conf file now allows the crun OCI runtime to be used if it is installed

Update podman to v1.4.2: Fixed a bug where Podman could not run containers using an older version of Systemd as init

Updated vendored Buildah to v1.9.0 to resolve a critical bug with Dockerfile RUN instructions

The error message for running podman kill on containers that are not running has been improved

Podman remote client can now log to a file if syslog is not available

The podman exec command now sets its error code differently based on whether the container does not exist, and the command in the container does not exist

The podman inspect command on containers now outputs Mounts JSON that matches that of docker inspect, only including user-specified volumes and differentiating bind mounts and named volumes

The podman inspect command now reports the path to a container's OCI spec with the OCIConfigPath key (only included when the container is initialized or running)

The podman run --mount command now supports the bind-nonrecursive option for bind mounts

Fixed a bug where podman play kube would fail to create containers due to an unspecified log driver

Fixed a bug where Podman would fail to build with musl libc

Fixed a bug where rootless Podman using slirp4netns networking in an environment with no nameservers on the host other than localhost would result in nonfunctional networking

Fixed a bug where podman import would not properly set environment variables, discarding their values and retaining only keys

Fixed a bug where Podman would fail to run when built with Apparmor support but run on systems without the Apparmor kernel module loaded

Remote Podman will now default the username it uses to log in to remote systems to the username of the current user

Podman now uses JSON logging with OCI runtimes that support it, allowing for better error reporting

Updated vendored containers/image to v2.0

Update conmon to v0.3.0

Support OOM Monitor under cgroup V2

Add config binary and make target for configuring conmon with a go library for importing values

Fixed a bug where filtering images by label did not work

Fixed a bug where specifying a bing mount or tmpfs mount over an image volume would cause a container to be unable to start

Fixed a bug where podman generate kube did not work with containers with named volumes

Fixed a bug where rootless podman would receive permission denied errors accessing conmon.pid

Fixed a bug where podman cp with a folder specified as target would replace the folder, as opposed to copying into it

Fixed a bug where rootless Podman commands could double-unlock a lock, causing a crash

Fixed a bug where podman incorrectly set tmpcopyup on /dev/ mounts, causing errors when using the Kata containers runtime

Fixed a bug where podman exec would fail on older kernels

Podman commit command is now usable with the Podman remote client

Signature-policy flag has been deprecated

The podman cp command can now read input redirected to STDIN, and output to STDOUT instead of a file, using - instead of an argument.

The podman remote client now displays version information from both the client and server in podman version

The podman unshare command has been added, allowing easy entry into the user namespace set up by rootless Podman (allowing the removal of files created by rootless podman, among other things)

Fixed a bug where container and pod locks were incorrectly marked as released after a system reboot, causing errors on container and pod removal

Fixed a bug where pod locks were not being freed when pods were removed, potentially leading to lock exhaustion

Fixed a bug where 'podman run' with SD_NOTIFY set could, on short-running containers, create an inconsistent state rendering the container unusable
