Description

This update for runc fixes the following issues:

Security vulnerablities addressed:

- CVE-2019-5736: Effectively copying /proc/self/exe during re-exec to

avoid write attacks to the host runc binary, which could lead to a

container breakout (bsc#1121967)

- CVE-2018-16873: Fix a remote command execution during "go get -u"

(boo#1118897)

- CVE-2018-16874: Fix a directory traversal in "go get" via curly braces

in import paths (boo#1118898)

- CVE-2018-16875: Fix a CPU denial of service issue (boo#1118899)

Other changes and bug fixes:

- Update go requirements to >= go1.10

- Create a symlink in /usr/bin/runc to enable rootless Podman and Buildah.

- Make use of %license macro

- Remove 'go test' from %check section, as it has only ever caused us

release-blocking issue. Smoke testing has been far more useful.

(boo#1095817)

- Upgrade to runc v1.0.0~rc6. Upstream...
