"The remote Oracle Linux 7 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
ELSA-2021-9203 advisory.
- runc through 1.0-rc6, as used in Docker before 18.09.2 and other products, allows attackers to overwrite
the host runc binary (and consequently obtain host root access) by leveraging the ability to execute a
command as root within one of these types of containers: (1) a new container with an attacker-controlled
image, or (2) an existing container, to which the attacker previously had write access, that can be
attached with docker exec. This occurs because of file-descriptor mishandling, related to /proc/self/exe.
(CVE-2019-5736)
