DescriptionCVE.org

HashiCorp Nomad and Nomad Enterprise did not enforce the allow_privileged restriction for the Docker task driver's host namespace mode options. This may allow an authenticated job submitter to run a container in a host namespace and access information belonging to the host or to other workloads on the same client. This vulnerability, CVE-2026-14373, is fixed in Nomad Community Edition 2.0.4 and Nomad Enterprise 2.0.4, 1.11.8, and 1.10.14.

AnalysisAI

Host namespace escape in HashiCorp Nomad and Nomad Enterprise lets an authenticated job submitter bypass the allow_privileged control for the Docker task driver, launching containers in host PID/network/IPC namespaces to read data from the host or co-located workloads on the same client node. The flaw stems from missing authorization enforcement (CWE-862) and carries a CVSS 7.7 with a changed scope, reflecting cross-tenant impact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires: (1) the Nomad client running on Linux with the Docker task driver enabled; (2) an operator having set allow_privileged to false expecting it to block privileged/host features (on the assumption this control is enforced); (3) the attacker holding valid Nomad ACL credentials with the submit-job capability; and (4) the attacker crafting a Docker task that specifies host namespace mode options (host network/PID/IPC). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The supplied CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N, score 7.7) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack by an already-authenticated low-privilege principal (a valid job submitter), with a scope change reflecting that the container breaks out of its intended isolation to affect the host and neighboring workloads. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who holds valid Nomad job-submission credentials (for example, a low-trust tenant in a shared cluster or someone with stolen ACL tokens) submits a Docker task that requests host namespace mode despite allow_privileged being set to false. Because the restriction is not enforced, Nomad schedules the container in the host's namespaces, letting the attacker inspect host processes, network traffic, or data from other workloads running on the same client node. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Nomad Community Edition 2.0.4, or Nomad Enterprise 2.0.4, 1.11.8, or 1.10.14, matching your current release branch, per HashiCorp advisory HCSEC-2026-19 (https://discuss.hashicorp.com/t/hcsec-2026-19-nomad-docker-driver-vulnerable-to-host-namespace-bypass-on-linux/77557). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
