Details
Summary
CVE-2024-9407 is a vulnerability that affects the bind-propagation option of the Dockerfile RUN --mount instruction, allowing for improper validation of inputs. This flaw enables users to pass arbitrary parameters, potentially leading to the mounting of sensitive host directories into containers during the build process and modifying their contents. The vulnerability can bypass SELinux protections by allowing relabeling of source directories, posing a significant risk to confidentiality while maintaining a low integrity impact. Organizations are advised to remediate this issue by ensuring proper input validation for mount instructions in Dockerfiles and limiting user privileges where possible. The vulnerability has a medium severity rating with an exploitability score of 0.5, indicating that high privileges are required for exploitation in local contexts.
