Rocky Linux 9 [CIQ] Security Update: podman / podman-debuginfo / podman-debugsource / podman-docker / etc Multiple Vulnerabilities (crlsa-2024_2548)

high Nessus Plugin ID 355981

Synopsis

The Rocky Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The Rocky Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the CIQ crlsa-2024_2548 advisory.

The podman tool manages pods, container images, and containers. It is part of the libpod library, which is for applications that use container pods. Container pods is a concept in Kubernetes.

Security Fixes:

* podman: golang-protobuf: encoding/protojson, internal/encoding/json: infinite loop in protojson.Unmarshal when unmarshaling certain forms of invalid JSON (CVE-2024-24786)

* podman: buildah: full container escape at build time (CVE-2024-1753)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the CIQ security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages based on the guidance in CIQ advisory crlsa-2024_2548.
