Este ataque es muy similar en concepto y aplicaci\u00f3n a CVE-2025-31133, excepto que ataca una vulnerabilidad similar en un objetivo diferente (es decir, el montaje por enlace de '/dev/pts/$n' a '/dev/console' tal como est\u00e1 configurado para todos los contenedores que asignan una consola). Esto ocurre despu\u00e9s de 'pivot_root(2)', por lo que esto no puede usarse para escribir directamente en archivos del host; sin embargo, al igual que con CVE-2025-31133, esto puede llevar a la denegaci\u00f3n de servicio del host o a un escape de contenedor al proporcionar al atacante una copia escribible de '/proc/sysrq-trigger' o '/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern' (respectivamente). Este problema est\u00e1 solucionado en las versiones 1.2.8, 1.3.3 y 1.4.0-rc.3."}], "id": "CVE-2025-52565", "lastModified": "2026-06-17T09:36:41.353", "metrics": {"cvssMetricV31": [{"cvssData": {"attackComplexity": "HIGH", "attackVector": "LOCAL", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 7.5, "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "scope": "CHANGED", "userInteraction": "REQUIRED", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.1"}, "exploitabilityScore": 0.8, "impactScore": 6.0, "source": "nvd@nist.gov", "type": "Primary"}], "cvssMetricV40": [{"cvssData": {"Automatable": "NOT_DEFINED", "Recovery": "NOT_DEFINED", "Safety": "NOT_DEFINED", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackRequirements": "NONE", "attackVector": "LOCAL", "availabilityRequirement": "NOT_DEFINED", "baseScore": 8.4, "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "confidentialityRequirement": "NOT_DEFINED", "exploitMaturity": "NOT_DEFINED", "integrityRequirement": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedAttackComplexity": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedAttackRequirements": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedAttackVector": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedPrivilegesRequired": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedSubAvailabilityImpact": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedSubConfidentialityImpact": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedSubIntegrityImpact": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedUserInteraction": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedVulnAvailabilityImpact": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedVulnConfidentialityImpact": "NOT_DEFINED", "modifiedVulnIntegrityImpact": "NOT_DEFINED", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "providerUrgency": "NOT_DEFINED", "subAvailabilityImpact": "HIGH", "subConfidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "subIntegrityImpact": "HIGH", "userInteraction": "PASSIVE", "valueDensity": "NOT_DEFINED", "vectorString": "CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/MVI:X/MVA:X/MSC:X/MSI:X/MSA:X/S:X/AU:X/R:X/V:X/RE:X/U:X", "version": "4.0", "vulnAvailabilityImpact": "NONE", "vulnConfidentialityImpact": "NONE", "vulnIntegrityImpact": "HIGH", "vulnerabilityResponseEffort": "NOT_DEFINED"}, "source": "security-advisories@github.com", "type": "Secondary"}], "ssvcV203": [{"source": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "ssvcData": {"id": "CVE-2025-52565", "options": [{"exploitation": "none"}, {"automatable": "no"}, {"technicalImpact": "partial"}], "role": "CISA Coordinator", "timestamp": "2025-11-06T21:32:07.457681Z", "version": "2.0.3"}}]}, "published": "2025-11-06T20:15:49.240", "references": [{"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/01de9d65dc72f67b256ef03f9bfb795a2bf143b4"}, {"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/398955bccb7f20565c224a3064d331c19e422398"}, {"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/531ef794e4ecd628006a865ad334a048ee2b4b2e"}, {"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/9be1dbf4ac67d9840a043ebd2df5c68f36705d1d"}, {"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/aee7d3fe355dd02939d44155e308ea0052e0d53a"}, {"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/db19bbed5348847da433faa9d69e9f90192bfa64"}, {"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/de87203e625cd7a27141fb5f2ad00a320c69c5e8"}, {"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/commit/ff94f9991bd32076c871ef0ad8bc1b763458e480"}, {"source": "security-advisories@github.com", "tags": ["Exploit", "Mitigation", "Patch", "Third Party Advisory"], "url": "https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/security/advisories/GHSA-qw9x-cqr3-wc7r"}], "sourceIdentifier": "security-advisories@github.com", "vulnStatus": "Analyzed", "weaknesses": [{"description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-61"}, {"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-363"}], "source": "security-advisories@github.com", "type": "Secondary"}]}
