CWEhttps://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/269.html

A vulnerability was found in podman build and buildah. This issue occurs in a container breakout by using –jobs=2 and a race condition when building a malicious Containerfile. SELinux might mitigate it, but even with SELinux on, it still allows the enumeration of files and directories on the host.

Weakness

The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
