An insecure modification vulnerability in the /etc/passwd file was found in the operator-framework/presto as shipped in Red Hat Openshift 4. An attacker with access to the container could use this flaw to modify /etc/passwd and escalate their privileges.
A product incorrectly assigns a privilege to a particular actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
