Executive Summary

CVE-2025-70819 is a vulnerability in Zettlab D6 Ultra before version 1.7.0 that allows mounting critical host system files like /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow into a Docker container via path traversal in volume definitions. This can be exploited by specifying paths like ../../../../../../../etc:/h_etc:rw in a compose file.

Detection Guidance

Check Docker container configurations for suspicious volume mounts using commands like 'docker inspect <container_name> | grep -A 10 Mounts' or 'docker volume ls'. Look for paths containing '/etc/passwd' or '/etc/shadow' in compose files or Docker run commands.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability allows an attacker with access to the system to gain root access by mounting host files into a container. This could enable unauthorized SSH access, creation of backdoor users, and potential full control over the device.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows unauthorized access to sensitive system files like /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow through container volume manipulation. This could lead to exposure of user credentials and system configurations, potentially violating data protection requirements under GDPR and HIPAA by compromising confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data.

Mitigation Strategies

Update Zettlab D6 Ultra to firmware version 1.7.0 or later. Remove any Docker volume mounts that use path traversal like '../../' to access host files. Disable SSH access if enabled and monitor for unauthorized changes.
