Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Docker Buildx. When building multiple targets simultaneously using an untrusted Bake definition, filesystem paths from certain targets fail to be verified against approved access entitlements. An attacker could exploit this flaw by enticing a user to execute a malicious build definition, resulting in unauthorized information disclosure of local files accessible to the client without required read permissions.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-03 22:11:15 UTC
In Docker Buildx versions v0.19.0 through v0.38.0, an untrusted Bake definition that builds multiple targets together may expose files accessible to the Buildx client without the expected fs.read approval. Under certain conditions, filesystem paths from some targets are not verified against the approved entitlements. Users who run untrusted Bake definitions may be affected. The issue is fixed in v0.38.1.
