Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Red Hat Process Automation 7 (version now known). It has been declared as critical. This vulnerability affects some unknown processing of the component Process Automation Manager. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a default permission vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-276. During installation, installed file permissions are set to allow anyone to modify those files. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

A container privilege escalation flaw was found in certain Red Hat Process Automation Manager images. This issue stems from the /etc/passwd file being created with group-writable permissions during build time. In certain conditions, an attacker who can execute commands within an affected container, even as a non-root user, can leverage their membership in the root group to modify the /etc/passwd file. This could allow the attacker to add a new user with any arbitrary UID, including UID 0, leading to full root privileges within the container.
