CVE-2022-31030

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory 202401-31 - Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in containerd, the worst of which could result in privilege escalation. Versions greater than or equal to 1.6.14 are affected.

Dell Unity 5.3 contain(s) an Arbitrary File Creation vulnerability. A remote unauthenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability by crafting arbitrary files through a request to the server.

Dell VxRail, versions prior to 7.0.410, contain a Container Escape Vulnerability. A local high-privileged attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to the execution of arbitrary OS commands on the container's underlying OS. Exploitation may lead to a system take over by an attacker.

Ubuntu Security Notice 5776-1 - It was discovered that containerd incorrectly handled memory when receiving certain faulty Exec or ExecSync commands. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or crash containerd. It was discovered that containerd incorrectly set up inheritable file capabilities. An attacker could possibly use this issue to escalate privileges inside a container. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

### Impact A bug was found in containerd's CRI implementation where programs inside a container can cause the containerd daemon to consume memory without bound during invocation of the `ExecSync` API. This can cause containerd to consume all available memory on the computer, denying service to other legitimate workloads. Kubernetes and crictl can both be configured to use containerd's CRI implementation; `ExecSync` may be used when running probes or when executing processes via an "exec" facility. ### Patches This bug has been fixed in containerd 1.6.6 and 1.5.13. Users should update to these versions to resolve the issue. ### Workarounds Ensure that only trusted images and commands are used. ### References * Similar fix in cri-o's CRI implementation https://github.com/cri-o/cri-o/security/advisories/GHSA-fcm2-6c3h-pg6j ### Credits The containerd project would like to thank David Korczynski and Adam Korczynski of ADA Logics for responsibly disclosing this issue in accordan...

In Docker before versions 9.03.15, 20.10.3 there is a vulnerability in which pulling an intentionally malformed Docker image manifest crashes the dockerd daemon. Versions 20.10.3 and 19.03.15 contain patches that prevent the daemon from crashing.
