Docker Desktop Vulnerability Allows Unrestricted Socket Access with Enhanced Container Isolation

CVE-2025-10657

What is CVE-2025-10657?

In Docker Desktop version 4.46.0, a vulnerability exists that undermines Enhanced Container Isolation (ECI) with respect to the command restrictions feature. Administrators intending to restrict commands that can be executed on a Docker socket may find that configuration settings are ignored due to a software bug. This allows any command to be run on the socket without restriction, granting excessive privileges and potentially exposing the system to untrusted operations. It is crucial for users to review their configurations when utilizing ECI with the Docker socket to mitigate potential security risks.
