CVE-2024-2240 Details

A vulnerability exists in the Docker daemon of Brocade SANnav versions prior to 2.3.1b, where the daemon runs without proper auditing. This lack of oversight could enable a remote authenticated attacker to execute various attacks. The Docker daemon operates with root privileges, allowing unrestricted access to the host system. Elevated operations should be audited to enhance security, facilitate incident response, and ensure compliance with standards.

Users can update to Brocade SANnav versions 2.4.0 or 2.3.1b, where this vulnerability has been addressed. Alternatively, users can manually audit Docker operations by editing the Docker audit rules file to include specific monitoring directives, then loading the new rules with the 'augenrules --load' command and validating the changes with 'auditctl -l | grep 'docker'.
