Vulnerabilities

A Privilege Context Switching issue was discovered in join.c in Firejail 0.9.68.

Firejail before 0.9.64.4 allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions because there is a TOCTOU race condition between a stat operation and an OverlayFS mount operation.

Firejail through 0.9.62 mishandles shell metacharacters during use of the --output or --output-stderr option, which may lead to command injection.

Firejail through 0.9.62 does not honor the -- end-of-options indicator after the --output option, which may lead to command injection.

In Firejail before 0.9.60, seccomp filters are writable inside the jail, leading to a lack of intended seccomp restrictions for a process that is joined to the jail after a filter has been modified by an attacker.

Firejail before 0.9.60 allows truncation (resizing to length 0) of the firejail binary on the host by running exploit code inside a firejail sandbox and having the sandbox terminated.

Firejail allows --chroot when seccomp is not supported, which might allow local users to gain privileges.

Firejail does not properly clean environment variables, which allows local users to gain privileges.

Firejail uses weak permissions for /dev/shm/firejail and possibly other files, which allows local users to gain privileges.

Firejail uses 0777 permissions when mounting (1) /dev, (2) /dev/shm, (3) /var/tmp, or (4) /var/lock, which allows local users to gain privileges.

Firejail uses 0777 permissions when mounting /tmp, which allows local users to gain privileges.

Firejail allows local users to truncate /etc/resolv.conf via a chroot command to /.

Firejail does not restrict access to --tmpfs, which allows local users to gain privileges, as demonstrated by mounting over /etc.

Firejail before 0.9.44.4, when running a bandwidth command, allows local users to gain root privileges via the --shell argument.

Firejail before 0.9.44.4, when running on a Linux kernel before 4.8, allows context-dependent attackers to bypass a seccomp-based sandbox protection mechanism via the --allow-debuggers argument.

Firejail before 0.9.44.6 and 0.9.38.x LTS before 0.9.38.10 LTS does not comprehensively address dotfile cases during its attempt to prevent accessing user files with an euid of zero, which allows local users to conduct s…

Firejail before 0.9.44.4 and 0.9.38.x LTS before 0.9.38.8 LTS does not consider the .Xauthority case during its attempt to prevent accessing user files with an euid of zero, which allows local users to conduct sandbox-es…

Firejail 0.9.38.4 allows local users to execute arbitrary commands outside of the sandbox via a crafted TIOCSTI ioctl call.
