Abstract:

Container technology provides a lightweight operating system level virtual hosting environment. It has been broadly adopted in various computation scenarios, including edge computing, microservice architecture, serverless computing, and commercial cloud vendors. However, security and privacy concerns still widely exist regarding whether the container features in the Linux kernel can provide the same level of security and isolation guarantees as VMs. In this talk, I will introduce security problems in two basic building blocks, namespace and control groups, that enable containerization on Linux; and discuss potential exploitations and consequences.

容器技术提供了一种轻量级操作系统的虚拟主机环境,并且已经被广泛的应用在各种计算场景。然而对于内核中的容器特性是否能够提供足够的安全和隔离保证仍存疑问。本次报告将对namespace和control groups两个基本构建块中的安全问题进行讨论。
