Update 08.02.24:
We have installed a bugfix release for the affected software component and enabled user namespaces again.
Dear users,
due to an open security issue we are required to disable the feature of so-called user namespaces on the cluster. This feature is mainly used by containerization software and affects the way apptainer containers will behave. The changes are effective immediately. Most users should not experience any interruptions. If you experience any problems, please contact us as usual via servicedesk@itc.rwth-aachen.de with a precise description of the features you are using. We will reactivate user namespaces as soon as we can install the necessary fixes for the aforementioned vulnerability.
