containerd CRI server: Host memory exhaustion through Attach goroutine leak

Open Source Vulnerabilities GHSA-m6hq-p25p-ffr2

### Impact A bug was found in containerd's CRI Attach implementation where a user can exhaust memory on the host due to goroutine leaks. Repetitive calls of CRI Attach (e.g., [`kubectl attach`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubectl/generated/kubectl_attach/)) could increase the memory usage of containerd. ### Patches This bug has been fixed in the following containerd versions: * 2.2.0 * 2.1.5 * 2.0.7 * 1.7.29 Users should update to these versions to resolve the issue. ### Workarounds Set up an admission controller to control accesses to `pods/attach` resources. e.g., [Validating Admission Policy](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/validating-admission-policy/). ### Credits The containerd project would like to thank @Wheat2018 for responsibly disclosing this issue in accordance with the [containerd security policy](https://github.com/containerd/project/blob/main/SECURITY.md). ### References https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2025-64329 ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [containerd](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/issues/new/choose) * Email us at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) To report a security issue in containerd: * [Report a new vulnerability](https://github.com/containerd/containerd/security/advisories/new)
