Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23648)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an error when handling specially crafted image configuration in containerd where containers launched through containerd’s CRI implementation. A remote attacker can bypass any policy-based enforcement on container setup and access the read-only copies of arbitrary files and directories on the host.


2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-32149)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to ParseAcceptLanguage does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted Accept-Language header that will take a significant time to parse and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-27664)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an HTTP/2 connection can hang during closing if shutdown were preempted by a fatal error. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Inconsistent interpretation of HTTP requests (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41721)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform HTTP/2 request smuggling attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of HTTP/2 requests when using MaxBytesHandler. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP/2 request to the server and smuggle arbitrary HTTP headers.

Successful exploitation of vulnerability may allow an attacker to poison HTTP cache and perform phishing attacks.


5) Security restrictions bypass (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-43816)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a logic issue, which causes arbitrary files and directories on the host to be relabeled to match the container process label through the use of specially-configured bind mounts in a hostPath volume. A local user can place the in-container location of the hostPath volume mount at either `/etc/hosts`, `/etc/hostname`, or `/etc/resolv.conf` and gain read/write access to arbitrary file on the system.

The vulnerability affects containerd installations using SELinux, such as EL8 (CentOS, RHEL), Fedora, or SUSE MicroOS.
