Snyk team has found four vulnerabilities collectively called “Leaky Vessels” that impact the runc and Buildkit container infrastructure and build tools, potentially allowing attackers to perform container escape on various software products.
On January 31, 2024, Buildkit fixed the flaws with version 0.12.5, and runc addressed the security issue impacting it on version 1.1.12.
Docker released version 4.27.0 on the same day, incorporating the secured versions of the components in its Moby engine, with versions 25.0.1 and 24.0.8.
It’s still not an excuse to just ignore the security update because you might not be a target for hackers.

Oh. I didn’t meant to incite breaking any of the golden rules of cyber safety: (1) always update, (2) never host WordPress ;)
