NVD Description

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

A privilege escalation flaw was found in Podman. This flaw allows an attacker to publish a malicious image to a public registry. Once this image is downloaded by a potential victim, the vulnerability is triggered after a user runs the 'podman top' command. This action gives the attacker access to the host filesystem, leading to information disclosure or denial of service.
