openSUSE 13.2: SU-2014:1596-1 Important: Docker Privilege Escalation
opensuse
December 8, 2014
An update that fixes two vulnerabilities is now available.
Description
docker was updated to version 1.3.2 to fix two security issues.
These security issues were fixed:
- Symbolic and hardlink issues leading to privilege escalation
(CVE-2014-6407).
- Potential container escalation (CVE-2014-6408).
There non-security issues were fixed:
- Fix deadlock in docker ps -f exited=1
- Fix a bug when --volumes-from references a container that failed to start
- --insecure-registry now accepts CIDR notation such as 10.1.0.0/16
- Private registries whose IPs fall in the 127.0.0.0/8 range do no need
the --insecure-registry flag
- Skip the experimental registry v2 API when mirroring is enabled
- Fixed minor packaging issues.
