Security Fix(es):
containerd: containerd is an open-source container runtime. In versions prior to 1.7.33, 2.3.2, 2.2.5, 2.1.9, and 2.0.10 the CRI plugin propagates labels from an image config (LABEL instruction in Dockerfile) to a container without validation. This may result in executing an arbitrary command on the host, via a plugin that consumes container labels for some operations. This issue has been fixed in versions 1.7.33, 2.3.2, 2.2.5, 2.1.9, and 2.0.10.(CVE-2026-53488)
containerd: A flaw was found in containerd. This vulnerability allows a user to exhaust memory on the host due to goroutine leaks via a bug in the CRI (Container Runtime Interface) Attach implementation.(CVE-2025-64329)
containerd: bugfix
glibc: A flaw was found in glibc. When the wordexp function is called with the flags WRDE_REUSE and WRDE_APPEND, it may return uninitialized memory. If the caller inspects the we_wordv array or calls the wordfree function to free the allocated memory, the process will abort, resulting in a denial of service.(CVE-2025-15281)
glibc: A flaw was found in glibc, the GNU C Library. When an application calls the `getnetbyaddr` or `getnetbyaddr_r` functions to resolve a network address, and the system's `nsswitch.conf` file is configured to use a DNS (Domain Name System) backend for network lookups, a query for a zero-valued network can lead to the disclosure of stack memory contents. This information is leaked to the configured DNS resolver, potentially allowing an attacker who controls the resolver to gain sensitive data from the affected system.(CVE-2026-0915)
glibc: A flaw was found in the glibc library. Passing an excessively large alignment value to the memalign suite of functions, such as memalign, posix_memalign, aligned_alloc, valloc and pvalloc, an integer overflow can occur during internal size calculations due to improper overflow checks, causing an allocation of a small chunk of memory which is subsequently used for writing. This issue can result in an application crash or heap memory corruption.(CVE-2026-0861)
glibc: bugfix
