CVE-2020-14298: The version of docker as released for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Extras via RHBA-2020:0053 advisory included an incorrect version of runc mi

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 35/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.32% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: docker (Red Hat:rhel_extras_other:7) 2:1.13.1-162.git64e9980.el7_8; docker-client (Red Hat:rhel_extras_other:7) 2:1.13.1-162.git64e9980.el7_8; docker-common (Red Hat:rhel_extras_other:7) 2:1.13.1-162.git64e9980.el7_8.
  • Mentioned 2 times in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to docker (Red Hat:rhel_extras_other:7) 2:1.13.1-162.git64e9980.el7_8; docker-client (Red Hat:rhel_extras_other:7) 2:1.13.1-162.git64e9980.el7_8; docker-common (Red Hat:rhel_extras_other:7) 2:1.13.1-162.git64e9980.el7_8 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

The version of docker as released for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Extras via RHBA-2020:0053 advisory included an incorrect version of runc missing the fix for CVE-2019-5736, which was previously fixed via RHSA-2019:0304. This issue could allow a malicious or compromised container to compromise the container host and other containers running on the same host. This issue only affects docker version 1.13.1-108.git4ef4b30.el7, shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 Extras. Both earlier and later versions are not affected.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
