CVE-2020-1726
A flaw was discovered in Podman where it incorrectly allows containers when created to overwrite existing files in volumes, even if they are mounted as read-only.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.85%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
