Additional information
NVDhttps://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-19345
CWEhttps://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/266.html

A vulnerability was found in all openshift/mediawiki-apb 4.x.x versions prior to 4.3.0, where an insecure modification vulnerability in the /etc/passwd file was found in the container openshift/mediawiki-apb. An attacker with access to the container could use this flaw to modify /etc/passwd and escalate their privileges.

Weakness

A product incorrectly assigns a privilege to a particular actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
