Amazon Linux 2 : containerd, docker (ALASDOCKER-2022-021)

high Nessus Plugin ID 166169

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2 host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of containerd installed on the remote host is prior to 1.6.6-1. The version of docker installed on the remote host is prior to 20.10.17-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2DOCKER-2022-021 advisory.

 In net/http in Go before 1.18.6 and 1.19.x before 1.19.1, attackers can cause a denial of service because an HTTP/2 connection can hang during closing if shutdown were preempted by a fatal error. (CVE-2022-27664)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Run 'yum update containerd' to update your system.
 Run 'yum update docker' to update your system.
