Is that not the cve that was patched a while back? The publication date is 11th of February?
Hello from Glasgow btw :: waves :: :-)
Oh, yes, actually. You're absolutely right. This was sent over to me this morning as a 'new threat' to deal with, and as such I treated it as news. I hadn't spotted the publication date, in my haste to share it! Oops! Thanks - I'm hopeful that, if all else, this post serves as a useful reminder to patch up!
Ah, a fellow Glasgow-er! Wasn't sure how many I'd bump into on here! :)
We Glaswegians get everywhere it seems ;-) One day the internet will realise what we're like and ban us ;-)
At the moment we're in the process of going from 'docker for qa' to 'docker for production' so your post caught my eye - I was all ready to sigh and start patching - then the cve number caught my eye and thought 'oh, that's familiar' ;-)
Does anyone have any strategies for being updated when new vulnerabilities are released? I've always wondered how people stay on top of these situations.
I find a reasonable amount via the Full Disclosure mailing list:
seclists.org/fulldisclosure/
Other sources are my Twitter contacts in the infosec industry, including the official CVE team cve.mitre.org/cve/
Finally - I run Debian on public systems, so their own security patches are a source of alerts.
I think, sadly, as with a lot of tech these days it's either 'maybe see something on twitter' or 'saw a blog post the other day' :-/ Docker's own CVE database doesn't inspire much confidence either : docker.com/legal/docker-cve-database
Container runtime images for Docker that are published in the Azure Marketplace are patched to the latest CVE standards. All VM and container images undergo vulnerability testing prior to publication in Azure Marketplace.
Patched Docker runtime images have since been republished to the Azure Marketplace. Thanks for posting.
