Overview

k8s.io/kubernetes/pkg/kubelet/kuberuntime is a package that contains an implementation of kubecontainer.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insecure Permissions. Containers for pods that do not specify an explicit runAsUser will attempt to run as uid 0 (root) on container restart, or if the image was previously pulled to the node. This behaviour also occurs if mustRunAsNonRoot: true setting is used.
