CVE-2019-19724
Insecure permissions (777) are set on $HOME/.singularity when it is newly created by Singularity (version from 3.3.0 to 3.5.1), which could lead to an information leak, and malicious redirection of operations performed against Sylabs cloud services.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.23%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
