runc: Execution of malicious containers allows for container escape and access to host filesystem

A flaw was found in the way runc handled system file descriptors when running containers. A malicious container could use this flaw to overwrite contents of the runc binary and consequently run arbitrary commands on the container host system...

CVE-2018-6552

Apport does not properly handle crashes originating from a PID namespace allowing local users to create certain files as root which an attacker could leverage to perform a denial of service via resource exhaustion, possibly gain root privileges, or escape from containers. The issamens function...

It was discovered that LXC incorrectly handled the TIOCSTI ioctl. An attacker could possibly use this issue to escape LXC containers...

CVE-2016-9962

RunC allowed additional container processes via 'runc exec' to be ptraced by the pid 1 of the container. This allows the main processes of the container, if running as root, to gain access to file-descriptors of these new processes during the initialization and can lead to container escapes or...

docker: insecure opening of file-descriptor allows privilege escalation

The runc component used by docker exec feature of docker allowed additional container processes to be ptraced by the pid 1 of the container. This allows the main processes of the container, if running as root, to gain low-level access to these new processes during initialization. An attacker can,...
