runc v1.2.4 -- "Христос се роди!"

This is the fourth patch release of the 1.2.z release branch of runc. It includes a fix for a regression introduced in 1.2.0 related to the default device list.

• Re-add tun/tap devices to built-in allowed devices lists.

  In runc 1.2.0 we removed these devices from the default allow-list (which were added seemingly by accident early in Docker's history) as a precaution in order to try to reduce the attack surface of device inodes available to most containers (#3468). At the time we thought that the vast majority of users using tun/tap would already be specifying what devices they need (such as by using --device with Docker/Podman) as opposed to doing the mknod manually, and thus there would've been no user-visible change.

  Unfortunately, it seems that this regressed a noticeable number of users (and not all higher-level tools provide easy ways to specify devices to allow) and so this change needed to be reverted. Users that do not need these devices are recommended to explicitly disable them by adding deny rules in their container configuration. (#4555, #4556)

Static Linking Notices

The runc binary distributed with this release are statically linked with the following GNU LGPL-2.1 licensed libraries, with runc acting as a "work that uses the Library":

• libseccomp

The versions of these libraries were not modified from their upstream versions, but in order to comply with the LGPL-2.1 (§6(a)), we have attached the complete source code for those libraries which (when combined with the attached runc source code) may be used to exercise your rights under the LGPL-2.1.

However we strongly suggest that you make use of your distribution's packages or download them from the authoritative upstream sources, especially since these libraries are related to the security of your containers.

Thanks to all of the contributors who made this release possible:

• Akihiro Suda [email protected]
