How to fix?

Upgrade Oracle:8 containers-common to version 2:1-82.0.1.module+el8.10.0+90429+ee702c5c or higher.
This issue was patched in ELSA-2024-8846.

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 Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in Go. When FIPS mode is enabled on a system, container runtimes may incorrectly handle certain file paths due to improper validation in the containers/common Go library. This flaw allows an attacker to exploit symbolic links and trick the system into mounting sensitive host directories inside a container. This issue also allows attackers to access critical host files, bypassing the intended isolation between containers and the host system.
