Package: lxc
Version: 1:2.0.7-2+deb9u2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

both current stable and unstable versions of LXC are affected by issue
similar to CVE-2018-10892 - arbitrary modification of /proc/acpi
contents from inside the container.

Suggested mitigation of this issue would be including:

deny /proc/acpi/* rwx,

to all Apparmor profiles that are provided by lxc package.

And, since this can be considered a security issue, feel free to tag the
bug as 'serious'.

Sincerely yours, Reco
