openSUSE-SU-2024:0244-1

Описание

This update for apptainer fixes the following issues:

• Make sure, digest values handled by the Go library github.com/opencontainers/go-digest and used throughout the Go-implemented containers ecosystem are always validated. This prevents attackers from triggering unexpected authenticated registry accesses. (CVE-2024-3727, boo#1224114).

• Updated apptainer to version 1.3.0

  • FUSE mounts are now supported in setuid mode, enabling full functionality even when kernel filesystem mounts are insecure due to unprivileged users having write access to raw filesystems in containers. When allow setuid-mount extfs = no (the default) in apptainer.conf, then the fuse2fs image driver will be used to mount ext3 images in setuid mode instead of the kernel driver (ext3 images are primarily used for the --overlay feature), restoring functionality that was removed by default in Apptainer 1.1.8 because of the security risk. The allow setuid-mount squashfs configuration option in apptainer.conf now has a new default called iflimited which allows kernel squashfs mounts only if there is at least one limit container option set or if Execution Control Lists are activated in ecl.toml. If kernel squashfs mounts are are not allowed, then the squashfuse image driver will be used instead. iflimited is the default because if one of those limits are used the system administrator ensures that unprivileged users do not have write access to the containers, but on the other hand using FUSE would enable a user to theoretically bypass the limits via ptrace() because the FUSE process runs as that user. The fuse-overlayfs image driver will also now be tried in setuid mode if the kernel overlayfs driver does not work (for example if one of the layers is a FUSE filesystem). In addition, if allow setuid-mount encrypted = no then the unprivileged gocryptfs format will be used for encrypting SIF files instead of the kernel device-mapper. If a SIF file was encrypted using the gocryptfs format, it can now be mounted in setuid mode in addition to non-setuid mode.
  • Change the default in user namespace mode to use either kernel overlayfs or fuse-overlayfs instead of the underlay feature for the purpose of adding bind mount points. That was already the default in setuid mode; this change makes it consistent. The underlay feature can still be used with the --underlay option, but it is deprecated because the implementation is complicated and measurements have shown that the performance of underlay is similar to overlayfs and fuse-overlayfs. For now the underlay feature can be made the default again with a new preferred value on the enable underlay configuration option. Also the --underlay option can be used in setuid mode or as the root user, although it was ignored previously.
  • Prefer again to use kernel overlayfs over fuse-overlayfs when a lower layer is FUSE and there's no writable upper layer, undoing the change from 1.2.0. Another workaround was found for the problem that change addressed. This applies in both setuid mode and in user namespace mode.
  • --cwd is now the preferred form of the flag for setting the container's working directory, though --pwd is still supported for compatibility.
  • The way --home is handled when running as root (e.g. sudo apptainer) or with --fakeroot has changed. Previously, we were only modifying the HOME environment variable in these cases, while leaving the container's /etc/passwd file unchanged (with its homedir field pointing to /root, regardless of the value passed to --home). With this change, both value of HOME and the contents of /etc/passwd in the container will reflect the value passed to --home if the container is readonly. If the container is writable, the /etc/passwd file is left alone because it can interfere with commands that want to modify it.
  • The --vm and related flags to start apptainer inside a VM have been removed. This functionality was related to the retired Singularity Desktop / SyOS projects.
  • The keyserver-related commands that were under remote have been moved to their own, dedicated keyserver command. Run apptainer help keyserver for more information.
  • The commands related to OCI/Docker registries that were under remote have been moved to their own, dedicated registry command. Run apptainer help registry for more information.
  • The the remote list subcommand now outputs only remote endpoints (with keyservers and OCI/Docker registries having been moved to separate commands), and the output has been streamlined.
  • Adding a new remote endpoint using the apptainer remote add command will now set the new endpoint as default. This behavior can be suppressed by supplying the --no-default (or -n) flag to remote add.
  • Skip parsing build definition file template variables after comments beginning with a hash symbol.
  • The global /tmp directory is no longer used for gocryptfs mountpoints.

• New Features & Functionality

  • The remote status command will now print the username, realname, and email of the logged-in user, if available.
  • Add monitoring feature support, which requires the usage of an additional tool named apptheus, this tool will put apptainer starter into a newly created cgroup and collect system metrics.
  • A new --no-pid flag for apptainer run/shell/exec disables the PID namespace inferred by --containall and --compat.
  • Added --config option to keyserver commands.
  • Honor an optional remoteName argument to the keyserver list command.
  • Added the APPTAINER_ENCRYPTION_PEM_DATA env var to allow for encrypting and running encrypted containers without a PEM file.
  • Adding --sharens mode for apptainer exec/run/shell, which enables to run multiple apptainer instances created by the same parent using the same image in the same user namespace.

• Make 'gocryptfs' an optional dependency.

• Make apptainer definition templates version dependent.

• Fix 'apptainer build' using signed packages from the SUSE Registry (boo#1221364).

• Updated apptainer to version 1.2.5

  • Added libnvidia-nvvm to nvliblist.conf. Newer NVIDIA Drivers (known with >= 525.85.05) require this lib to compile OpenCL programs against NVIDIA GPUs, i.e. libnvidia-opencl depends on libnvidia-nvvm.
  • Disable the usage of cgroup in instance creation when --fakeroot is passed.
  • Disable the usage of cgroup in instance creation when hidepid mount option on /proc is set.
  • Fixed a regression introduced in 1.2.0 where the user's password file information was not copied in to the container when there was a parent root-mapped user namespace (as is the case for example in cvmfsexec).
  • Added the upcoming NVIDIA driver library libnvidia-gpucomp.so to the list of libraries to add to NVIDIA GPU-enabled containers. Fixed missing error handling during the creation of an encrypted image that lead to the generation of corrupted images.
  • Use APPTAINER_TMPDIR for temporary files during privileged image encryption.
  • If rootless unified cgroups v2 is available when starting an image but XDG_RUNTIME_DIR or DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS is not set, print an info message that stats will not be available instead of exiting with a fatal error.
  • Allow templated build arguments to definition files to have empty values.

• Package .def templates separately for different SPs.

• Do not build squashfuse, require it as a dependency.

• Replace awkward 'Obsoletes: singularity-*' as well as the 'Provides: Singularity' by 'Conflicts:' and drop the provides - the versioning scheme does not match and we do not automatically migrate from one to the other.

• Exclude platforms which do not provide all build dependencies.

• updated to 1.2.3 with following changes:

  • The apptainer push/pull commands now show a progress bar for the oras protocol like there was for docker and library protocols.
  • The --nv and --rocm flags can now be used simultaneously.
  • Fix the use of APPTAINER_CONFIGDIR with apptainer instance start and action commands that refer to instance://.
  • Fix the issue that apptainer would not read credentials from the Docker fallback path ~/.docker/config.json if missing in the apptainer credentials.

• updated to 1.2.2 with following changes:

  • Fix $APPTAINER_MESSAGELEVEL to correctly set the logging level.
  • Fix build failures when in setuid mode and unprivileged user namespaces are unavailable and the --fakeroot option is not selected.

• updated to 1.2.1 to fix CVE-2023-38496 although not relevant as package is compiled with setuid

• update to 1.2.0 with following changes:

  • binary is built reproducible which disables plugins
  • Create the current working directory in a container when it doesn't exist. This restores behavior as it was before singularity 3.6.0. As a result, using --no-mount home won't have any effect when running apptainer from a home directory and will require --no-mount home,cwd to avoid mounting that directory.
  • Handle current working directory paths containing symlinks both on the host and in a container but pointing to different destinations. If detected, the current working directory is not mounted when the destination directory in the container exists.
  • Destination mount points are now sorted by shortest path first to ensure that a user bind doesn't override a previous bind path when set in arbitrary order on the CLI. This is also applied to image binds.
  • When the kernel supports unprivileged overlay mounts in a user namespace, the container will be constructed by default using an overlay instead of an underlay layout for bind mounts. A new --underlay action option can be used to prefer underlay instead of overlay.
  • sessiondir maxsize in apptainer.conf now defaults to 64 MiB for new installations. This is an increase from 16 MiB in prior versions.
  • The apptainer cache is now architecture aware, so the same home directory cache can be shared by machines with different architectures.
  • Overlay is blocked on the panfs filesystem, allowing sandbox directories to be run from panfs without error.
  • Lookup and store user/group information in stage one prior to entering any namespaces, to fix an issue with winbind not correctly looking up user/group information when using user namespaces.

• New features / functionalities

  • Support for unprivileged encryption of SIF files using gocryptfs. This is not compatible with privileged encryption, so containers encrypted by root need to be rebuilt by an unprivileged user.
  • Templating support for definition files. Users can now define variables in definition files via a matching pair of double curly brackets. Variables of the form {{ variable }} will be replaced by a value defined either by a variable=value entry in the %arguments section of the definition file or through new build options --build-arg or --build-arg-file.
  • Add a new instance run command that will execute the runscript when an instance is initiated instead of executing the startscript.
  • The sign and verify commands now support signing and verification with non-PGP key material by specifying the path to a private key via the --key flag.
  • The verify command now supports verification with X.509 certificates by specifying the path to a certificate via the --certificate flag. By default, the system root certificate pool is used as trust anchors unless overridden via the --certificate-roots flag. A pool of intermediate certificates that are not trust anchors, but can be used to form a certificate chain, can also be specified via the --certificate-intermediates flag.
  • Support for online verification checks of X.509 certificates using OCSP protocol via the new verify --ocsp-verify option.
  • The instance stats command displays the resource usage every second. The --no-stream option disables this interactive mode and shows the point-in-time usage.
  • Instances are now started in a cgroup by default, when run as root or when unified cgroups v2 with systemd as manager is configured. This allows apptainer instance stats to be supported by default when possible.
  • The instance start command now accepts an optional --app argument which invokes a start script within the %appstart section in the definition file. The instance stop command still only requires the instance name.
  • The instance name is now available inside an instance via the new APPTAINER_INSTANCE environment variable.
  • The --no-mount flag now accepts the value bind-paths to disable mounting of all bind path entries in apptainer.conf. Support for DOCKER_HOST parsing when using docker-daemon:// DOCKER_USERNAME and DOCKER_PASSWORD supported without APPTAINER_ prefix. Add new Linux capabilities CAP_PERFMON, CAP_BPF, and CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.
  • The remote get-login-password command allows users to retrieve a remote's token. This enables piping the secret directly into docker login while preventing it from showing up in a shell's history.
  • Define EUID in %environment alongside UID.
  • In --rocm mode, the whole of /dev/dri is now bound into the container when --contain is in use. This makes /dev/dri/render devices available, required for later ROCm versions.

• update to 1.1.9 with following changes:

  • Remove warning about unknown xino=on option from fuse-overlayfs, introduced in 1.1.8.
  • Ignore extraneous warning from fuse-overlayfs about a readonly /proc.
  • Fix dropped 'n' characters on some platforms in definition file stored as part of SIF metadata.
  • Remove duplicated group ids.
  • Fix not being able to handle multiple entries in LD_PRELOAD when binding fakeroot into container during apptainer startup for --fakeroot with fakeroot command.

• Included a fix for CVE-2023-30549 which is a vulnerability in setuid-root installations of Apptainer iwhich was not active in the recent openSUSE packages. Still this is included for completenss. The fix adds allow setuid-mount configuration options encrypted, squashfs, and extfs, and makes the default for extfs be 'no'. That disables the use of extfs mounts including for overlays or binds while in the setuid-root mode, while leaving it enabled for unprivileged user namespace mode. The default for encrypted and squashfs is 'yes'.

• Other bug fixes:

  • Fix loop device 'no such device or address' spurious errors when using shared loop devices.
  • Add xino=on mount option for writable kernel overlay mount points to fix inode numbers consistency after kernel cache flush (not applicable to fuse-overlayfs).

• updated to 1.1.7 with following changes:

  • Allow gpu options such as --nv to be nested by always inheriting all libraries bound in to a parent container's /.singularity.d/libs.
  • Map the user's home directory to the root home directory by default in the non-subuid fakeroot mode like it was in the subuid fakeroot mode, for both action commands and building containers from definition files.
  • Make the error message more helpful in another place where a remote is found to have no library client.
  • Avoid incorrect error when requesting fakeroot network.
  • Pass computed LD_LIBRARY_PATH to wrapped unsquashfs. Fixes issues where unsquashfs on host uses libraries in non-default paths.
