7.5 HighFix available

CVE-2019-9946 is a high vulnerability (CVSS 7.5) in Cncf Portmap, published April 2, 2019. No source lists public exploit code. EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 3.16%, the 87th percentile. Fixed in containerd 1.2.6-r0.

Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) CNI (Container Networking Interface) 0.7.4 has a network firewall misconfiguration which affects Kubernetes. The CNI 'portmap' plugin, used to setup HostPorts for CNI, inserts rules at the front of the iptables nat chains; which take precedence over the KUBE- SERVICES chain. Because of this, the HostPort/portmap rule could match incoming traffic even if there were better fitting, more specific service definition rules like NodePorts later in the chain. The issue is fixed in CNI 0.7.5 and Kubernetes 1.11.9, 1.12.7, 1.13.5, and 1.14.0.
