Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Security restrictions bypass
EUVDB-ID: #VU62468
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1227
CWE-ID:
CWE-264 - Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to improper privilege management when running podman top on a container made from a maliciously-crafted image and using a user namespace. An attacker with full access to the container can execute arbitrary code in the host context.
Install updates from vendor's repository.
Vulnerable software versionsFedora: 34
podman: before 3.4.7-1.fc34
CPE2.3 External linkshttps://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-5e637f6cc6
Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote authenticated privileged user via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability. However, proof of concept for this vulnerability is available.
2) Input validation error
EUVDB-ID: #VU61599
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 6.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2022-21698
CWE-ID:
CWE-20 - Improper input validation
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input within method label cardinality. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
MitigationInstall updates from vendor's repository.
Vulnerable software versionsFedora: 34
