runc 1.1.7 -- "Ночевала тучка золотая на груди утеса-великана."
This is the seventh patch release in the 1.1.z release of runc, and is
the last planned release of the 1.1.z series. It contains a fix for
cgroup device rules with systemd when handling device rules for devices
that don't exist (though for devices whose drivers don't correctly
register themselves in the kernel -- such as the NVIDIA devices -- the
full fix only works with systemd v240+).
- When used with systemd v240+, systemd cgroup drivers no longer skip
DeviceAllowrules if the device does not exist (a regression introduced
in runc 1.1.3). This fix also reverts the workaround added in runc 1.1.5,
removing an extra warning emitted by runc run/start. (#3845, #3708, #3671) - The source code now has a new file,
runc.keyring, which contains the keys
used to sign runc releases. (#3838)

runc 1.1.6 -- "In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes."
This is the sixth path release in the 1.1.z series of runc, which fixes
a series of cgroup-related issues.
Note that this release can no longer be built from sources using Go
1.16. Using a latest maintained Go 1.20.x or Go 1.19.x release is
recommended. Go 1.17 can still be used.
- systemd cgroup v1 and v2 drivers were deliberately ignoring
UnitExisterror
from systemd while trying to create a systemd unit, which in some scenarios
may result in a container not being added to the proper systemd unit and
cgroup. (#3780, #3806) - systemd cgroup v2 driver was incorrectly translating cpuset range from spec's
resources.cpu.cpusto systemd unit property (AllowedCPUs) in case of more
than 8 CPUs, resulting in the wrong AllowedCPUs setting. (#3808) - systemd cgroup v1 driver was prefixing container's cgroup path with the path
of PID 1 cgroup, resulting in inability to place PID 1 in a non-root cgroup.
(#3811) - runc run/start may return "permission denied" error when starting a rootless
container when the file to be executed does not have executable bit set for
the user, not taking theCAP_DAC_OVERRIDEcapability into account. This is
a regression in runc 1.1.4, as well as in Go 1.20 and 1.20.1 (#3715, #3817) - cgroup v1 drivers are now aware of
misccontroller. (#3823)

runc 1.1.5 -- "囚われた屈辱は 反撃の嚆矢だ"
This is the fifth patch release in the 1.1.z series of runc, which fixes
three CVEs found in runc.
-
CVE-2023-25809 is a vulnerability involving rootless containers where
(under specific configurations), the container would have write access
to the /sys/fs/cgroup/user.slice/... cgroup hierarchy. No other
hierarchies on the host were affected. This vulnerability was
discovered by Akihiro Suda.
GHSA-m8cg-xc2p-r3fc -
CVE-2023-27561 was a regression which effectively re-introduced
CVE-2019-19921. This bug was present from v1.0.0-rc95 to v1.1.4. This
regression was discovered by @Beuc.
GHSA-vpvm-3wq2-2wvm -
CVE-2023-28642 is a variant of CVE-2023-27561 and was fixed by the same
patch. This variant of the above vulnerability was reported by Lei
Wang.
GHSA-g2j6-57v7-gm8c
In addition, the following other fixes are included in this release:
- Fix the inability to use
/dev/nullwhen inside a container. (#3620) - Fix changing the ownership of host's
/dev/nullcaused by fd redirection
(a regression in 1.1.1). (#3674, #3731) - Fix rare runc exec/enter unshare error on older kernels, including
CentOS < 7.7. (#3776) - nsexec: Check for errors in
write_log(). (#3721)

runc 1.1.4 -- "If you look for perfection, you'll never be content."
This is the fourth patch release in the 1.1.z series of runc, primarily
fixing a regression introduced in 1.1.3 related to device rules. It also
fixes a few other bugs.
- Fix mounting via wrong proc fd. When the user and mount namespaces are
used, and the bind mount is followed by the cgroup mount in the spec,
the cgroup was mounted using the bind mount's mount fd. (#3511) - Switch
kill()inlibcontainer/nsentertosane_kill(). (#3536) - Fix "permission denied" error from
runc runonnoexecfs. (#3541) - Fix failed exec after
systemctl daemon-reload. Due to a regression
in v1.1.3, theDeviceAllow=char-pts rwmrule was no longer added and
was causing an erroropen /dev/pts/0: operation not permitted: unknownwhen systemd was reloaded. (#3554)

runc 1.1.3 -- "In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded."
This is the third release of the 1.1.z series of runc, and contains
various minor improvements and bugfixes.
- Our seccomp
-ENOSYSstub now correctly handles multiplexed syscalls on
s390 and s390x. This solves the issue where syscalls the host kernel did not
support would return-EPERMdespite the existence of the-ENOSYSstub
code (this was due to how s390x does syscall multiplexing). (#3478) - Retry on dbus disconnect logic in libcontainer/cgroups/systemd now works as
intended; this fix does not affect runc binary itself but is important for
libcontainer users such as Kubernetes. (#3476) - Inability to compile with recent clang due to an issue with duplicate
constants in libseccomp-golang. (#3477) - When using systemd cgroup driver, skip adding device paths that don't exist,
to stop systemd from emitting warnings about those paths. (#3504) - Socket activation was failing when more than 3 sockets were used. (#3494)
- Various CI fixes. (#3472, #3479)
- Allow to bind mount /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid to inside container. (#3493)
- runc static binaries are now linked against libseccomp v2.5.4. (#3481)

runc 1.1.2 -- "I should think I’m going to be a perpetual student."
This is the second patch release of the runc 1.1 release branch. It
fixes CVE-2022-29162, a minor security issue (which appears to not be
exploitable) related to process capabilities.
This is a similar bug to the ones found and fixed in Docker and
containerd recently (CVE-2022-24769).
- A bug was found in runc where runc exec --cap executed processes with
non-empty inheritable Linux process capabilities, creating an atypical Linux
environment. For more information, see GHSA-f3fp-gc8g-vw66 and
CVE-2022-29162. runc specno longer sets any inheritable capabilities in the created
example OCI spec (config.json) file.

runc 1.1.1 -- "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent."
This is the first stable release in the 1.1 branch, fixing a few issues
with runc 1.1.0.
Fixed:
- runc run/start can now run a container with read-only /dev in OCI spec,
rather than error out. (#3355) - runc exec now ensures that --cgroup argument is a sub-cgroup. (#3403)
- libcontainer systemd v2 manager no longer errors out if one of the files
listed in /sys/kernel/cgroup/delegate do not exist in container's
cgroup. (#3387, #3404) - Loosen OCI spec validation to avoid bogus "Intel RDT is not supported"
error. (#3406) - libcontainer/cgroups no longer panics in cgroup v1 managers if stat
of /sys/fs/cgroup/unified returns an error other than ENOENT. (#3435)

runc 1.1 -- "A plan depends as much upon execution as it does upon concept."
This release only contains very minor changes from v1.1.0-rc.1 and is
the first release of the 1.1.y release series of runc. We do not plan to make
any new releases of the 1.0.y release series of runc, so users are strongly
encouraged to update to 1.1.0.
Changed:
- libcontainer will now refuse to build without the nsenter package being
correctly compiled (specifically this requires CGO to be enabled). This
should avoid folks accidentally creating broken runc binaries (and
incorrectly importing our internal libraries into their projects). (#3331)

runc 1.1-rc1 -- "He who controls the spice controls the universe."
This release is the first release candidate for the next minor release
following runc 1.0. It contains all of the bugfixes included in runc 1.0
patch releases (up to and including 1.0.3).
A fair few new features have been added, and several features have been
deprecated (with plans for removal in runc 1.2). At the moment we only
plan to do a single release candidate for runc 1.1, and once 1.1.0 is
released we will not continue updating the 1.0.z runc branch.
Deprecated:
- runc run/start now warns if a new container cgroup is non-empty or frozen;
this warning will become an error in runc 1.2. (#3132, #3223) - runc can only be built with Go 1.16 or later from this release onwards.
(#3100, #3245)
Removed:
cgroup.GetHugePageSizeshas been removed entirely, and been replaced with
cgroup.HugePageSizeswhich is more efficient. (#3234)intelrdt.GetIntelRdtPathhas been removed. Users who were using this
function to get the intelrdt root should use the newintelrdt.Root
instead. (#2920, #3239)
Added:
- Add support for RDMA cgroup added in Linux 4.11. (#2883)
- runc exec now produces exit code of 255 when the exec failed.
This may help in distinguishing between runc exec failures
(such as invalid options, non-running container or non-existent
binary etc.) and failures of the command being executed. (#3073) - runc run: new
--keepoption to skip removal exited containers artefacts.
This might be useful to check the state (e.g. of cgroup controllers) after
the container has exited. (#2817, #2825) - seccomp: add support for
SCMP_ACT_KILL_PROCESSandSCMP_ACT_KILL_THREAD
(the latter is just an alias forSCMP_ACT_KILL). (#3204) - seccomp: add support for
SCMP_ACT_NOTIFY(seccomp actions). This allows
users to create sophisticated seccomp filters where syscalls can be
efficiently emulated by privileged processes on the host. (#2682) - checkpoint/restore: add an option (
--lsm-mount-context) to set
a different LSM mount context on restore. (#3068) - runc releases are now cross-compiled for several architectures. Static
builds for said architectures will be available for all future releases.
(#3197) - intelrdt: support ClosID parameter. (#2920)
- runc exec --cgroup: an option to specify a (non-top) in-container cgroup
to use for the process being executed. (#3040, #3059) - cgroup v1 controllers now support hybrid hierarchy (i.e. when on a cgroup v1
machine a cgroup2 filesystem is mounted to /sys/fs/cgroup/unified, runc
run/exec now adds the container to the appropriate cgroup under it). (#2087,
#3059) - sysctl: allow slashes in sysctl names, to better match
sysctl(8)'s
behaviour. (#3254, #3257) - mounts: add support for bind-mounts which are inaccessible after switching
the user namespace. Note that this does not permit the container any
additional access to the host filesystem, it simply allows containers to
have bind-mounts configured for paths the user can access but have
restrictive access control settings for other users. (#2576) - Add support for recursive mount attributes using
mount_setattr(2). These
have the same names as the proposedmount(8)options -- just prependr
to the option name (such asrro). (#3272) - Add
runc featuressubcommand to allow runc users to detect what features
runc has been built with. This includes critical information such as
supported mount flags, hook names, and so on. Note that the output of this
command is subject to change and will not be considered stable until runc
1.2 at the earliest. The runtime-spec specification for this feature is
being developed in opencontainers/runtime-spec#1130. (#3296)
Changed:
- system: improve performance of
/proc/$pid/statparsing. (#2696) - cgroup2: when
/sys/fs/cgroupis configured as a read-write mount, change
the ownership of certain cgroup control files (as per
/sys/kernel/cgroup/delegate) to allow for proper deferral to the container
process. (#3057) - docs: series of improvements to man pages to make them easier to read and
use. (#3032)
Libcontainer API:
- internal api: remove internal error types and handling system, switch to Go
wrapped errors. (#3033) - New configs.Cgroup structure fields (#3177):
- Systemd (whether to use systemd cgroup manager); and
- Rootless (whether to use rootless cgroups).
- New cgroups/manager package aiming to simplify cgroup manager instantiation.
(#3177) - All cgroup managers' instantiation methods now initialize cgroup paths and
can return errors. This allows to use any cgroup manager method (e.g.
Exists, Destroy, Set, GetStats) right after instantiation, which was not
possible before (as paths were initialized in Apply only). (#3178)
Fixed:
- nsenter: do not try to close already-closed fds during container setup and
bail on close(2) failures. (#3058) - runc checkpoint/restore: fixed for containers with an external bind mount
which destination is a symlink. (#3047). - cgroup: improve openat2 handling for cgroup directory handle hardening.
(#3030) runc delete -fnow succeeds (rather than timing out) on a paused
container. (#3134)- runc run/start/exec now refuses a frozen cgroup (paused container in case of
exec). Users can disable this using--ignore-paused. (#3132, #3223) - config: do not permit null bytes in mount fields. (#3287)

runc 1.0.3 -- "If you were waiting for the opportune moment, that was it."
This is the third stable release in the 1.0 branch, fixing a handful of medium
priority issues related to mounts and cgroups, as well as a potential security
vulnerability.
This release is expected to be the last point release in the 1.0 branch, as we
are planning to release runc 1.1 in the near future.
Security:
-
A potential vulnerability was discovered in runc (related to an internal
usage of netlink), however upon further investigation we discovered that
while this bug was exploitable on the master branch of runc, no released
version of runc could be exploited using this bug. The exploit required
being able to create a netlink attribute with a length that would overflow a
uint16 but this was not possible in any released version of runc. For more
information, see GHSA-v95c-p5hm-xq8f and CVE-2021-43784.Due to an abundance of caution we decided to do an emergency release with
this fix, but to reiterate we do not believe this vulnerability was
possible to exploit. Thanks to Felix Wilhelm from Google Project Zero for
discovering and reporting this vulnerability so quickly.
Bugfixes:
- Fixed inability to start a container with read-write bind mount of a
read-only fuse host mount (#3292) - Fixed inability to start when read-only /dev in set in spec (#3277)
- Fixed not removing sub-cgroups upon container delete, when rootless cgroup v2
is used with older systemd (#3297) - Fixed returning error from GetStats when hugetlb is unsupported (which causes
excessive logging for kubernetes) (#3295) - [CI only] Fixed criu 3.16 compatibility issue (#3282)
- [CI only] Add Go 1.17 to the testing matrix (#3299)
Enhancements:
- Improved an error message when dbus-user-session is not installed and
rootless + cgroup2 + systemd are used (#3212)
