- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian LTS Advisory DLA-3322-1 [email protected] https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ Sylvain Beucler February 18, 2023 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : golang-github-opencontainers-selinux Version : 1.0.0~rc1+git20170621.5.4a2974b-1+deb10u1 CVE ID : CVE-2019-16884 Debian Bug : 942027

runc, as used in Docker and other products, allows AppArmor and SELinux restriction bypass, and thus a malicious Docker image could breach isolation.

This update carries SELinux-related fixes in the golang-github-opencontainers-selinux library, that will be leveraged in the upcoming runc security update.

For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.0~rc1+git20170621.5.4a2974b-1+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your golang-github-opencontainers-selinux packages.

For the detailed security status of golang-github-opencontainers-selinux please refer to its security tracker page at:
