Description
runc through 1.0.0-rc9 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.)
A flaw was found in runc. An attacker who controls the container image for two containers that share a volume can race volume mounts during container initialization, by adding a symlink to the rootfs that points to a directory on the volume. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
