A vulnerability was found in Docker Moby up to 17.03.2-ce (Virtualization Software). It has been rated as problematic. Affected by this issue is the function DefaultLinuxSpec of the file oci/defaults.go. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a information disclosure vulnerability (Data Loss). Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-200. The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information. Impacted is availability. CVE summarizes:

The DefaultLinuxSpec function in oci/defaults.go in Docker Moby through 17.03.2-ce does not block /proc/scsi pathnames, which allows attackers to trigger data loss (when certain older Linux kernels are used) by leveraging Docker container access to write a "scsi remove-single-device" line to /proc/scsi/scsi, aka SCSI MICDROP.
