CVE-2016-9962 not yet assigned priority: Debian including 2 source packages (docker.io, runc), 10 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 10.
RunC allowed additional container processes via 'runc exec' to be ptraced by the pid 1 of the container. This allows the main processes of the container, if running as root, to gain access to file-descriptors of these new processes during the initialization and can lead to container escapes or modification of runC state before the process is fully placed inside the container.
