How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:8 containers-common to version 1:0.1.37-6.module+el8.1.0+4876+e678a192 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream containers-common package and not the containers-common package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

runc through 1.0.0-rc8, as used in Docker through 19.03.2-ce and other products, allows AppArmor restriction bypass because libcontainer/rootfs_linux.go incorrectly checks mount targets, and thus a malicious Docker image can mount over a /proc directory.
