CVE-2026-47833
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
setupBpmLogs follows symlink for bpm.log open and chown — container-to-host privilege escalation via /etc/shadow. A compromised process inside a bpm container can cause root to chown an arbitrary host file to vcap and append bpm JSON log lines to it. The chown alone lets the attacker take ownership of /etc/shadow and read every password hash on the host via the read-only /etc bind mount. This is a container-to-host confidentiality break affecting every bpm-managed job. Affected versions: bpm-release, all versions prior to v1.4.30.

"value": "setupBpmLogs sigue el enlace simbólico para la apertura y el cambio de propietario (chown) de bpm.log - escalada de privilegios de contenedor a host a través de /etc/sha4dow. Un proceso comprometido dentro de un contenedor bpm puede hacer que root cambie el propietario (chown) de un archivo arbitrario del host a vcap y le añada líneas de registro JSON de bpm. El cambio de propietario (chown) por sí solo permite al atacante tomar posesión de /etc/sha4dow y leer cada hash de contraseña en el host a través del montaje de enlace (bind mount) de solo lectura de /etc. Esto es una ruptura de confidencialidad de contenedor a host que afecta a cada trabajo gestionado por bpm.\n\nVersiones afectadas: bpm-release, todas las versiones anteriores a la v1.4.30."
