CVE-2019-11245: Kubelet Incorrect Privilege Assignment
In kubelet v1.13.6 and v1.14.2, containers for pods that do not specify an explicit runAsUser
attempt to run as uid 0 (root) on container restart, or if the image was previously pulled to the node. If the pod specified mustRunAsNonRoot: true
, the kubelet will refuse to start the container as root. If the pod did not specify mustRunAsNonRoot: true
, the kubelet will run the container as uid 0.
