An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-23648 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/containerd/containerd (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.4.13, 1.5.10, 1.6.1\n- github.com/containerd/containerd (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.4.13\n- github.com/containerd/containerd (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.4.13\n- github.com/containerd/containerd (Go): affected from 1.5.0; fixed in 1.5.10\n- github.com/containerd/containerd (Go): affected from 1.5.0; fixed in 1.5.10\n- github.com/containerd/containerd (Go): affected from 1.6.0; fixed in 1.6.1\n- github.com/containerd/containerd (Go): affected from 1.6.0; fixed in 1.6.1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23648/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23648/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-23648","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23648/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-23648","record":{"aliases":["CLEANSTART-2025-XK69277","DEBIAN-CVE-2022-23648","DSA-5091-1","GHSA-crp2-qrr5-8pq7","GO-2022-0344","MGASA-2022-0088","OESA-2022-1671","SUSE-SU-2022:0719-1","SUSE-SU-2022:0720-1","SUSE-SU-2022:0720-2","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-23648","USN-5311-1","USN-5311-2","openSUSE-SU-2022:0720-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:11891-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:12008-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"container_or_infrastructure","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"container runtime","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can read arbitrary host files via crafted container images, bypassing security policies and exposing sensitive data.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"containerd","vendor":"linuxfoundation"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"containerd is a container runtime available as a daemon for Linux and Windows. A bug was found in containerd prior to versions 1.6.1, 1.5.10, and 1.14.12 where containers launched through containerd’s CRI implementation on Linux with a specially-crafted image configuration could gain access to read-only copies of arbitrary files and directories on the host. This may bypass any policy-based enforcement on container setup (including a Kubernetes Pod Security Policy) and expose potentially sensitive information. Kubernetes and crictl can both be configured to use containerd’s CRI implementation. This bug has been fixed in containerd 1.6.1, 1.5.10, and 1.4.12. Users should update to these versions to resolve the issue.","ecosystems":["Go","SUSE:Linux Enterprise Micro 5.0","SUSE:Linux Enterprise Micro 5.1","SUSE:Linux Enterprise Micro 5.2","SUSE:Linux
