NVIDIA Container Toolkit 1.16.1 or earlier contains a Time-of-check Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) vulnerability when used with default configuration where a specifically crafted container image may gain access to the host file system. This does not impact use cases where CDI is used. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to code execution, denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, and data tampering.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2026:0558-1 advisory.

    Update to version 1.18.0.

    Security issues fixed:

    - CVE-2024-0132: time-of-check time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition in default configuration via     specifically       crafted container image (bsc#1231033).
    - CVE-2024-0133: data tampering in host file system via specially crafted container image (bsc#1231032).

    Other updates and bugfixes:

    - updated to 1.18.0

      - Add clock_gettime to allowed syscalls
      - Fix pointer accessing local variable out of scope
      - Require version match between libnvidia-container-tools and libnvidia-container1

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2025:4187-1 advisory.

    - Update to version 1.18.0:
      - This is a major release and includes the following high-level changes:
        - The default mode of the NVIDIA Container Runtime has been updated to make use           of a just-in-time-generated CDI specification instead of defaulting to the legacy mode.
        - Added a systemd unit to generate CDI specifications for available devices automatically. This allows           native CDI support in container engines such as Docker and Podman to be used without additional     steps.

    - Security issues fixed:
      - CVE-2024-0133: Fixed data tampering in host file system via specially         crafted container image (bsc#1231032)

      - CVE-2024-0134: Fixed specially-crafted container image can lead to         the creation of unauthorized files on the host (bsc#1232855)
