Description

A flaw was found in Buildah (and subsequently Podman Build) which allows containers to mount arbitrary locations on the host filesystem into build containers. A malicious Containerfile can use a dummy image with a symbolic link to the root filesystem as a mount source and cause the mount operation to mount the host root filesystem inside the RUN step. The commands inside the RUN step will then have read-write access to the host filesystem, allowing for full container escape at build time.

Solution(s)

  • suse-upgrade-buildah
  • suse-upgrade-cni
  • suse-upgrade-cni-plugins
  • suse-upgrade-podman
  • suse-upgrade-podman-cni-config
  • suse-upgrade-podman-docker
  • suse-upgrade-podman-remote
  • suse-upgrade-podmansh
