Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.
1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-30892)
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect option parsing in make_oci_process_user() when processing the crun exec -u (--user) option. A local user can supply a crafted user value to escalate privileges.
The value 1 is interpreted as UID 0 and GID 0 instead of UID 1 and GID 0, causing the process to run with higher privileges than intended.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
