Short explanation

In Docker Buildx versions v0.19.0 through v0.38.0, untrusted Bake definitions may expose files without expected fs.read approval. The patch status remains unverified in official sources.

Why does it matter?

Running untrusted Bake definitions can expose accessible files without undergoing the expected authorization checks.

What should be done?

  • Follow official vendor advisories
  • Avoid running untrusted Bake definitions

Show the technical text from the sources

In Docker Buildx versions v0.19.0 through v0.38.0, an untrusted Bake definition may expose files accessible to the Buildx client without the expected fs.read approval. Under certain conditions, paths under the same parent directory as the current working directory whose names use the working directory's basename as a prefix can skip the filesystem entitlement check. Exploitation requires specific matching filenames next to the current project directory. Users who run untrusted Bake definitions may be affected. The issue is fixed in v0.38.1.
