Lifecycle Timeline

Path traversal for some gaudi-container-runtime before version 1.24.0 within Ring 3: User Applications may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a low complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires passive user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
AnalysisAI
Path traversal in Intel's gaudi-container-runtime before version 1.24.0 enables privilege escalation for locally authenticated users running workloads on Intel Gaudi AI accelerator hardware. The CWE-22 path traversal flaw resides in the Ring 3 userspace component of the runtime, allowing a low-privileged attacker to traverse directory boundaries and potentially gain elevated access with full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis; the CVSS 4.0 score of 5.4 reflects the local attack vector, required attack preconditions (AT:P), and passive user interaction requirement, which substantially reduce real-world exploitability despite the high per-system impact.
Technical ContextAI
The gaudi-container-runtime is Intel's OCI-compatible container runtime enabling workloads to access Intel Gaudi (formerly Habana Labs) AI accelerators from within containers, analogous in architecture to NVIDIA's container runtime. It operates in Ring 3 (user space) and mediates device access between container workloads and the Gaudi hardware stack. CWE-22 (Path Traversal) indicates the runtime fails to sufficiently sanitize user-controlled path inputs, permitting a '../' or equivalent sequence to resolve outside the intended filesystem scope - a class of flaw that in container runtimes commonly enables container breakout or host filesystem access. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:n/a:gaudi-container-runtime:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covering all versions before 1.24.0. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:P) confirms local attack surface, low complexity once conditions are met, the need for attack preconditions (AT:P - a specific configuration or runtime state must be present), low-privilege authenticated access, and passive user interaction.
RemediationAI
The primary fix is to upgrade gaudi-container-runtime to version 1.24.0 or later, as confirmed by Intel advisory Intel-SA-01489 (https://intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-01489.html). Until the patch is applied, compensating controls should focus on restricting local access: limit which users are permitted to invoke the Gaudi container runtime by tightening OS-level group memberships and sudoers entries governing device access, and enforce mandatory access control policies (SELinux or AppArmor) that constrain the runtime process's filesystem traversal scope. Restricting the runtime to trusted, fully authenticated users removes the PR:L attack surface. Additionally, monitor container runtime invocations via auditd rules on relevant syscalls (open, openat, stat with '../' path segments) to detect traversal attempts. Note that compensating controls do not eliminate the underlying path sanitization flaw; patching remains the definitive remediation.
