Vigil@nce - Docker: denial of service via Swarm
October 2016 by Vigil@nce
This bulletin was written by Vigil@nce : https://vigilance.fr/offer
SYNTHESIS OF THE VULNERABILITY
A local attacker can join multiple times a Swarm of Docker, in
order to trigger a denial of service.
– Impacted products: Docker Engine.
– Severity: 2/4.
– Creation date: 04/08/2016.
DESCRIPTION OF THE VULNERABILITY
The Docker product can be used to create Swarms to group tasks.
However, an attacker can join and leave a Swarm a thousand times,
to generate a fatal error.
A local attacker can therefore join multiple times a Swarm of
Docker, in order to trigger a denial of service.
