github.com/opencontainers/runc is susceptible to malicious container execution. It does not properly perform the file-descriptor handling which allows a malicious user to overwrite the host runc binary and subsequently executing containers such as (1) a new container with an attacker-controlled image, or (2) an existing container, to which the attacker previously had write access, that can be attached with docker exec after gaining administrative access on the host.
