CVE-2019-5736

HIGH EXPLOITED

Docker Container Escape Via runC Overwrite

Title source: metasploit
STIX 2.1

Exploitation Summary

CVE-2019-5736 has been observed exploited in the wild (reported by VulnCheck KEV). EIP tracks 34 public exploits from researchers including embargo, feexd, Frichetten, including a Metasploit module exploits/linux/local/docker_runc_escape.

AI-analyzed exploit summary This exploit leverages CVE-2019-5736 to overwrite the host's runc binary from within a container, achieving root-level code execution on the host. It uses a malicious shared library to hijack the runc process during container execution.

Description

runc through 1.0-rc6, as used in Docker before 18.09.2 and other products, allows attackers to overwrite the host runc binary (and consequently obtain host root access) by leveraging the ability to execute a command as root within one of these types of containers: (1) a new container with an attacker-controlled image, or (2) an existing container, to which the attacker previously had write access, that can be attached with docker exec. This occurs because of file-descriptor mishandling, related to /proc/self/exe.
