Podman: containers-common: containers-common: default seccomp af_vsock/netlink_audit deny rules bypassable via 32-bit truncation

Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9; Red Hat Red Hat Hardened Images

A flaw was found in the default seccomp profile used by Podman via containers-common. Deny rules for AF_VSOCK and NETLINK_AUDIT compared socket arguments with unmasked 64-bit equality. Because the kernel truncates those int arguments to 32 bits, setting upper…

Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Applications 8; Red Hat Migration Toolkit for Virtualization; Red Hat OpenShift Service Mesh 3; Red Hat Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes 2

A flaw was found in the ansible-core user module. When generate_ssh_key is enabled, User.ssh_key_gen() guards the key files against symlinks but checks the ~/.ssh directory only with os.path.exists(). An unprivileged user on a managed node who replaces their …
