Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2021-37841 (CCN-207353)

Assigned:2021-08-11
Published:2021-08-11
Updated:2022-07-12
Summary:Docker Desktop before 3.6.0 suffers from incorrect access control. If a low-privileged account is able to access the server running the Windows containers, it can lead to a full container compromise in both process isolation and Hyper-V isolation modes. This security issue leads an attacker with low privilege to read, write and possibly even execute code inside the containers.
