Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- containerd is an open-source container runtime. Versions 0.1.0 through 1.7.28, 2.0.0-beta.0 through 2.0.6,
2.1.0-beta.0 through 2.1.4 and 2.2.0-beta.0 through 2.2.0-rc.1 have an overly broad default permission
vulnerability. Directory paths `/var/lib/containerd`, `/run/containerd/io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri` and
`/run/containerd/io.containerd.sandbox.controller.v1.shim` were all created with incorrect permissions.
This issue is fixed in versions 1.7.29, 2.0.7, 2.1.5 and 2.2.0. Workarounds include updating system
administrator permissions so the host can manually chmod the directories to not have group or world
accessible permissions, or to run containerd in rootless mode. (CVE-2024-25621)

Solution

Update the bottlerocket-containerd-1.7 library and its related packages to version 1.7.29 or later.
