crun is an open source OCI Container Runtime fully written in C. Prior to version 1.28, crun's default device setup opens the container rootfs /dev directory without ONOFOLLOW. If an OCI bundle contains rootfs/dev as a symlink and the bundle configuration does not mount /dev, crun follows that symlink and creates the default device nodes and stdio symlinks at the symlink target outside the container rootfs. In a local rootful crun replay, this created fixed device nodes and symlinks outside the rootfs before crun returned failure. A pre-existing file named ptmx in the target directory was also replaced by crun's forced ptmx -> pts/ptmx symlink. Version 1.28 fixes the issue.

crun is an open source OCI Container Runtime fully written in C. In versions 1.19 through 1.26, the crun exec option -u (--user) is incorrectly parsed. The value 1 is interpreted as UID 0 and GID 0 when it should have been UID 1 and GID 0. The process thus runs with higher privileges than expected. Version 1.27 patches the issue.
