CVE-2016-3697 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Debian security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Debian:10.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream docker.io package and not the docker.io package as distributed by Debian.
libcontainer/user/user.go in runC before 0.1.0, as used in Docker before 1.11.2, improperly treats a numeric UID as a potential username, which allows local users to gain privileges via a numeric username in the password file in a container.
