Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

This update for containerd, docker, docker-runc, golang-github-docker-libnetwork fixes the following issues :

Security issues fixed :

CVE-2020-15257: Fixed a privilege escalation in containerd (bsc#1178969).

CVE-2021-21284: potential privilege escalation when the root user in the remapped namespace has access to the host filesystem (bsc#1181732)

CVE-2021-21285: pulling a malformed Docker image manifest crashes the dockerd daemon (bsc#1181730)

Non-security issues fixed :

Update Docker to 19.03.15-ce. See upstream changelog in the packaged /usr/share/doc/packages/docker/CHANGELOG.md. This update includes fixes for bsc#1181732 (CVE-2021-21284) and bsc#1181730 (CVE-2021-21285).

Only apply the boo#1178801 libnetwork patch to handle firewalld on openSUSE. It appears that SLES doesn't like the patch. (bsc#1180401)

Update to containerd v1.3.9, which is needed for Docker v19.03.14-ce and fixes CVE-2020-15257. bsc#1180243

Update to containerd v1.3.7, which is required for Docker 19.03.13-ce.
bsc#1176708

Update to Docker 19.03.14-ce. See upstream changelog in the packaged /usr/share/doc/packages/docker/CHANGELOG.md. CVE-2020-15257 bsc#1180243 https://github.com/docker/docker-ce/releases/tag/v19.03.14

Enable fish-completion

Add a patch which makes Docker compatible with firewalld with nftables backend. Backport of https://github.com/moby/libnetwork/pull/2548 (bsc#1178801, SLE-16460)

Update to Docker 19.03.13-ce. See upstream changelog in the packaged /usr/share/doc/packages/docker/CHANGELOG.md. bsc#1176708

Fixes for %_libexecdir changing to /usr/libexec (bsc#1174075)

Emergency fix: %requires_eq does not work with provide symbols, only effective package names. Convert back to regular Requires.

Update to Docker 19.03.12-ce. See upstream changelog in the packaged /usr/share/doc/packages/docker/CHANGELOG.md.

Use Go 1.13 instead of Go 1.14 because Go 1.14 can cause all sorts of spurrious errors due to Go returning -EINTR from I/O syscalls much more often (due to Go 1.14's pre-emptive goroutine support).

Add BuildRequires for all -git dependencies so that we catch missing dependencies much more quickly.

Update to libnetwork 55e924b8a842, which is required for Docker 19.03.14-ce. bsc#1180243

Add patch which makes libnetwork compatible with firewalld with nftables backend. Backport of https://github.com/moby/libnetwork/pull/2548 (bsc#1178801, SLE-16460)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
