CVE-2023-7258
A denial of service exists in Gvisor Sandbox where a bug in reference counting code in mount point tracking could lead to a panic, making it possible for an attacker running as root and with permission to mount volumes to kill the sandbox.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.17%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
