{"id":"CVE-2026-53488","summary":"containerd CRI plugin: — image-config `LABEL` flows to restart-monitor `binary://` logger: host-root command execution from an image pull","details":"containerd is an open-source container runtime. In versions prior to 1.7.33, 2.3.2, 2.2.5, 2.1.9, and 2.0.10 the CRI plugin propagates labels from an image config (LABEL instruction in Dockerfile) to a container without validation. This may result in executing an arbitrary command on the host, via a plugin that consumes container labels for some operations. This issue has been fixed in versions 1.7.33, 2.3.2, 2.2.5, 2.1.9, and 2.0.10.","aliases":["GHSA-xhf5-7wjv-pqxp","GO-2026-5758"],"modified":"2026-07-11T03:54:34.455397602Z","published":"2026-07-01T00:11:20.610Z","related":["CGA-4xf2-3gvc-qqcq","openSUSE-SU-2026:11102-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:11107-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:21072-1","openSUSE-SU-2026:21213-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"GitHub_M","cwe_ids":["CWE-20"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/53xxx/CVE-2026-53488.json"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/53xxx/CVE-2026-53488.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/containerd/containerd/security/advisories/GHSA-xhf5-7wjv-pqxp"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-53488"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/containerd/containerd","events":[{"introduced":"1fbd70374134b891f97ce19c70b6e50c7b9f4e0d"},{"fixed":"e8b1a9bc270f9952197c470b8bad573b03a3a608"},{"introduced":"207ad711eabd375a01713109a8a197d197ff6542"},{"fixed":"ffa3ba0cfc08e443758c01c73a69db403d31ad1b"},{"introduced":"061792f0ecf3684fb30a3a0eb006799b8c6638a7"},{"fixed":"926009266892d80087b532f7f17ea14b43c4f23d"},{"introduced":"1c4457e00facac03ce1d75f7b6777a7a851e5c41"},{"fixed":"e53c7c1516c3b2bff98eb76f1f4117477e6f4e66"},{"introduced":"2976f38ccbfcda5ef1364d63d60b0a304e4bf94a"},{"fixed":"fff62f14765df376e5fc36f5a8f8e795b5670f61"}],"database_specific":{"cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:linuxfoundation:containerd:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","extracted_events":[{"introduced":"1.7.0"},{"fixed":"1.7.33"},{"introduced":"2.0.0"},{"fixed":"2.0.10"},{"introduced":"2.1.0"},{"fixed":"2.1.9"},{"introduced":"2.2.0"},{"fixed":"2.2.5"},{"introduced":"2.3.0"},{"fixed":"2.3.2"}],"source":"CPE_RANGE"}}],"versions":["v2.0.9","v2.1.8","v1.7.32","v2.3.1","v2.2.4","api/v1.11.1","v2.3.0","v2.0.7","v1.7.31","v2.1.7","v2.2.3","v2.0.8","v2.2.2","v1.7.30","v2.2.1","v2.1.6","v1.7.29","v2.2.0","v2.1.5","v1.7.28","v2.1.4","v2.0.6","v2.1.3","v2.1.2","v2.1.1","v2.1.0","v2.0.5","v1.7.27","v2.0.4","v1.7.26","v2.0.3","v1.7.25","v2.0.2","v2.0.1","v1.7.24","v2.0.0","v1.7.23","v1.7.22","v1.7.21","v1.7.20","v1.7.19","api/v1.7.19","v1.7.18","v1.7.17","v1.7.16","v1.7.15","v1.7.14","v1.7.11","v1.7.13","v1.7.12","v1.7.10","v1.7.9","v1.7.8","v1.7.7","v1.7.6","v1.7.5","v1.7.4","v1.7.3","v1.7.2","v1.7.1","v1.7.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-53488.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H"}]}
