HighCVSS 8.3 · v3.1—Proof of concept Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Plan (action score 45/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (Exploit-DB, GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 40.8% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 98.6% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. A user must open a link or visit a page. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • Fixed version: Azure Kubernetes Service Node on Azure Linux 20241009.1; Azure Kubernetes Service Node on Ubuntu Linux 202410.09.0; Azure Linux 3.0 ARM 1.16.2-1.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to Azure Kubernetes Service Node on Azure Linux 20241009.1; Azure Kubernetes Service Node on Ubuntu Linux 202410.09.0; Azure Linux 3.0 ARM 1.16.2-1 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

NVIDIA Container Toolkit 1.16.1 or earlier contains a Time-of-check Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) vulnerability when used with default configuration where a specifically crafted container image may gain access to the host file system. This does not impact use cases where CDI is used. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to code execution, denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, and data tampering.
