CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: buildah (CVE-2022-27651)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 172840

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of buildah installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2022-27651 advisory.

 - A flaw was found in buildah where containers were incorrectly started with non-empty default permissions.
 A bug was found in Moby (Docker Engine) where containers were incorrectly started with non-empty inheritable Linux process capabilities, enabling an attacker with access to programs with inheritable file capabilities to elevate those capabilities to the permitted set when execve(2) runs. This has the potential to impact confidentiality and integrity. (CVE-2022-27651)

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
