NVD Description

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

bubblewrap.c in Bubblewrap before 0.3.3 misuses temporary directories in /tmp as a mount point. In some particular configurations (related to XDG_RUNTIME_DIR), a local attacker may abuse this flaw to prevent other users from executing bubblewrap or potentially execute code.
