Package : runc
Version : 1.0.0~rc6+dfsg1-3+deb10u2
CVE ID : CVE-2019-16884 CVE-2019-19921 CVE-2021-30465 CVE-2022-29162
CVE-2023-27561
Debian Bug : 942026 988768

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in runc, the Open Container
Project runtime, which is often used with virtualization environments
such as Docker. Malicious Docker images or OCI bundles could breach
isolation.

CVE-2019-16884

runc, as used in Docker and other products, allows AppArmor and
SELinux restriction bypass because libcontainer/rootfs_linux.go
incorrectly checks mount targets, and thus a malicious Docker
image can mount over a /proc directory.

CVE-2019-19921

runc has Incorrect Access Control leading to Escalation of
Privileges, related to libcontainer/rootfs_linux.go. To exploit
this, an attacker must be able to spawn two containers with custom
volume-mount configurations, and be able to run custom
images. (This vulnerability does not affect Docker due to an
implementation detail that happens to block the attack.)

CVE-2021-30465

runc allows a Container Filesystem Breakout via Directory
Traversal. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker must be able
to create multiple containers with a fairly specific mount
configuration. The problem occurs via a symlink-exchange attack
that relies on a race condition.

CVE-2022-29162

`runc exec --cap` created processes with non-empty inheritable
Linux process capabilities, creating an atypical Linux environment
and enabling programs with inheritable file capabilities to
elevate those capabilities to the permitted set during
execve(2). This bug did not affect the container security sandbox
as the inheritable set never contained more capabilities than were
included in the container's bounding set.

CVE-2023-27561

CVE-2019-19921 was re-introduced by the fix for CVE-2021-30465.

For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version
1.0.0~rc6+dfsg1-3+deb10u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your runc packages.
