Technical Analysis

This advisory covers security updates in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.15.61 that fix three vulnerabilities in the runc container runtime: CVE-2025-31133 (container escape via 'masked path' abuse due to mount race conditions), CVE-2025-52565 (container escape with malicious config due to /dev/console mount and related races), and CVE-2025-52881 (container escape and denial of service due to arbitrary write gadgets and procfs write redirects affecting opencontainers/selinux). These vulnerabilities could allow container escape and denial of service. The advisory recommends upgrading to the updated packages and images provided in version 4.15.61.

Potential Impact

The vulnerabilities allow an attacker with container access to potentially escape the container isolation, leading to unauthorized access to the host system or denial of service conditions. This compromises the security boundary between containers and the host, impacting the integrity and availability of the affected OpenShift Container Platform deployments.

Mitigation Recommendations

Red Hat has released OpenShift Container Platform 4.15.61 packages and container images that fix these vulnerabilities. Users of OpenShift Container Platform 4.15 should upgrade to version 4.15.61 using the OpenShift CLI or web console as soon as the update is available in their release channel. Instructions for upgrading clusters are provided in the official Red Hat documentation. No alternative mitigations are indicated; applying the official update is required to remediate these issues.
