What it is about

Docker-Sandboxes betreiben KI-Codierungsagenten in isolierten MicroVM-Sandboxes. Ein lokaler Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Docker Sandboxes ausnutzen, um beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen und um Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen.

Under what conditions?

Only with access to the device or an account on it. Often the second step after a phishing email.

What can happen in the worst case

An attacker could use the vulnerability to

  • beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen
  • Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen

Am I affected?

Affected according to the BSI:

  • Docker Sandboxes <0.42.0

The installed version is usually shown under “Help → About” or in the device’s admin interface.

What helps?

Update to at least:

  • Docker Sandboxes 0.42.0

Is the vulnerability already being exploited?

None of the CVEs is in the CISA catalogue of exploited vulnerabilities. That does not mean there are no attacks, only that none are documented.
