Supplementary groups are not set up properly in github.com/containerd/containerd
### Impact

A bug was found in containerd where supplementary groups are not set up properly inside a container.  If an attacker has direct access to a container and manipulates their supplementary group access, they may be able to use supplementary group access to bypass primary group restrictions in some cases, potentially gaining access to sensitive information or gaining the ability to execute code in that container.

Downstream applications that use the containerd client library may be affected as well.

### Patches
This bug has been fixed in containerd v1.6.18 and v.1.5.18.  Users should update to these versions and recreate containers to resolve this issue.  Users who rely on a downstream application that uses containerd's client library should check that application for a separate advisory and instructions.

### Workarounds

Ensure that the `"USER $USERNAME"` Dockerfile instruction is not used.  Instead, set the container entrypoint to a value similar to `ENTRYPOINT ["su", "-", "user"]` to allow `su` to properly set up supplementary groups.

OCI image importer memory exhaustion in github.com/containerd/containerd
### Impact
When importing an OCI image, there was no limit on the number of bytes read for certain files. A maliciously crafted image with a large file where a limit was not applied could cause a denial of service.

### Patches

This bug has been fixed in containerd 1.6.18 and 1.5.18.  Users should update to these versions to resolve the issue.

### Workarounds

Ensure that only trusted images are used and that only trusted users have permissions to import images.
