Docker fixes critical container escape CVE-2025-9074
🚨Docker has released an urgent patch for CVE-2025-9074, a critical container escape flaw in Docker Desktop for Windows and macOS that carries a CVSS score of 9.3. A malicious container could reach the Docker Engine API at 192.168.65.7:2375 without authentication, create and start new containers that bind the host C:\ drive and thereby access or modify host files. The issue is fixed in version 4.44.3; Enhanced Container Isolation (ECI) does not mitigate the vulnerability. Linux desktop installations are not affected because they use a host named pipe instead of a TCP socket.
