Issue Overview:
AWS is aware of CVE-2024-21626, an issue affecting the runc component of several open source container management systems.

An updated version of runc that addresses the issue is available for Amazon Linux 1 (runc-1.1.11-1.0.amzn1), Amazon Linux 2 (runc-1.1.11-1.amzn2) and for Amazon Linux 2023 (runc-1.1.11-1.amzn2023). AWS recommends that customers using runc or any container-related software apply those updates or a newer version. (CVE-2024-21626)
