The version of docker installed on the remote host is prior to 20.10.4-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2ECS-2023-015 advisory.

  • In Docker before versions 9.03.15, 20.10.3 there is a vulnerability involving the --userns-remap option in which access to remapped root allows privilege escalation to real root. When using --userns-remap, if the root user in the remapped namespace has access to the host filesystem they can modify files under /var/lib/docker/<remapping> that cause writing files with extended privileges. Versions 20.10.3 and 19.03.15 contain patches that prevent privilege escalation from remapped user. (CVE-2021-21284)

  • In Docker before versions 9.03.15, 20.10.3 there is a vulnerability in which pulling an intentionally malformed Docker image manifest crashes the dockerd daemon. Versions 20.10.3 and 19.03.15 contain patches that prevent the daemon from crashing. (CVE-2021-21285)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
