NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream buildah package and not the buildah package as distributed by AlmaLinux. See How to fix? for AlmaLinux:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

A vulnerability was found in Buildah. Cache mounts do not properly validate that user-specified paths for the cache are within our cache directory, allowing a RUN instruction in a Container file to mount an arbitrary directory from the host (read/write) into the container as long as those files can be accessed by the user running Buildah.
