CVE-2017-18367
A process running under a restrictive seccomp filter that specified multiple syscall arguments could bypass intended access restrictions by specifying a single matching argument.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.43%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
libseccomp-golang 0.9.0 and earlier incorrectly generates BPFs that OR multiple arguments rather than ANDing them. A process running under a restrictive seccomp filter that specified multiple syscall arguments could bypass intended access restrictions by specifying a single matching argument.
