EulerOS 2.0 SP11 : docker-runc (EulerOS-SA-2024-1212)

high Nessus Plugin ID 191888

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the docker-runc package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - runc is a CLI tool for spawning and running containers on Linux according to the OCI specification. In runc 1.1.11 and earlier, due to an internal file descriptor leak, an attacker could cause a newly-spawned container process (from runc exec) to have a working directory in the host filesystem namespace, allowing for a container escape by giving access to the host filesystem ('attack 2'). The same attack could be used by a malicious image to allow a container process to gain access to the host filesystem through runc run ('attack 1'). Variants of attacks 1 and 2 could be also be used to overwrite semi-arbitrary host binaries, allowing for complete container escapes ('attack 3a' and 'attack 3b'). runc 1.1.12 includes patches for this issue. (CVE-2024-21626)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected docker-runc packages.
