Important notice regarding runc fixes for various vulnerabilities. Safeguard your Debian environment by updating runc components.
Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in runc, the Open Container Project runtime, which is often used with virtualization environments such as Docker

Summary

CVE-2019-16884

runc, as used in Docker and other products, allows AppArmor and
SELinux restriction bypass because libcontainer/rootfs_linux.go
incorrectly checks mount targets, and thus a malicious Docker
image can mount over a /proc directory.

CVE-2019-19921

runc 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.)

CVE-2021-30465

runc allows a Container Filesystem Breakout via Directory
Traversal. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker must be able
to create multiple containers with a fairly specific mount
configuration. The problem occurs via a symlink-exchange attack
that relies on a race condition.
