## Security related fixes

Singularity 3.6.3 addresses the following security issues.

- [CVE-2020-25039](https://github.com/hpcng/singularity/security/advisories/GHSA-w6v2-qchm-grj7):
When a Singularity action command (run, shell, exec) is run with
the fakeroot or user namespace option, Singularity will extract a
container image to a temporary sandbox directory. Due to insecure
permissions on the temporary directory it is possible for any user
with access to the system to read the contents of the
image. Additionally, if the image contains a world-writable file
or directory, it is possible for a user to inject arbitrary
content into the running container.

- [CVE-2020-25040](https://github.com/hpcng/singularity/security/advisories/GHSA-jv9c-w74q-6762):
When a Singularity command that results in a container build
operation is executed, it is possible for a user with access to
the system to read the contents of the image during the
build. Additionally, if the image contains a world-writable file
or directory, it is possible for a user to inject arbitrary
content into the running build, which in certain circumstances may
enable arbitrary code execution during the build and/or when the
built container is run.
