A path traversal vulnerability has been discovered in podman before version 1.4.0 in the way it handles symlinks inside containers. An attacker who has compromised an existing container can cause arbitrary files on the host filesystem to be read/written when an administrator tries to copy a file from/to the container.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2019-10152 lets a compromised container abuse symlinks during container file-copy operations so host files may be read or written. Business risk is high where Podman hosts run pre-1.4.0 versions and administrators or automation copy files to or from untrusted containers. Exposure is most likely on Linux container hosts using Podman before 1.4.0. Risk depends on an attacker first compromising a container and an administrator or automated process later copying files to or from that container. Treat this as a high-priority container host hardening issue, not a broad internet emergency. Patch affected Podman hosts promptly, especially where container compromise or untrusted workloads are realistic. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Podman to version 1.4.0 or a vendor-patched package.; Apply relevant distribution security updates, including openSUSE guidance where applicable.; Avoid copying files to or from untrusted containers until patched..
