Vulnerability in github.com/moby/moby/v2 (CVE-2026-41567)
Summary
Vulnerability in github.com/moby/moby/v2 (CVE-2026-41567). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via PUT /containers/{id}/archive. Mitigation: upgrade to 2.0.0-beta.14 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
The Docker daemon's implementation of the "PUT /containers/{id}/archive" endpoint executes a container binary on the host when extracting an archive to a container. On Unix-like systems, this can be exploited if an attacker can control the container's filesystem or the archive being extracted, potentially leading to privilege escalation or host compromise.
The affected code is located in the daemon package, specifically in the containerExtractToDir method of the Daemon struct. This package is part of the Moby daemon's core and is not intended for external use as a library.

Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.
A vulnerability (CWE-427) exists in github.com/moby/moby/v2. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via PUT /containers/{id}/archive.
Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of github.com/moby/moby/v2. Attack surface: PUT /containers/{id}/archive.
Severity: High (CVSS 7.2/10). Confidential information can be exposed externally.
Update to 2.0.0-beta.14.
Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.
Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual PUT /containers/{id}/archive requests with malformed payloads or SQL meta-characters. Run grep -r 'github.com/moby/moby/v2' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order
-
1Identify exposure identify
grep -r 'github.com/moby/moby/v2' . | grep -v node_modulesリポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で
github.com/moby/moby/v2を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。 -
2Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
grep 'PUT /containers/{id}/archive' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'アクセスログで
PUT /containers/{id}/archiveへの異常なリクエスト (不正な認証ヘッダ・SQLメタ文字)を過去 30〜90日分捜索。WAF/SIEM があれば該当パスのアラート発火履歴を確認。 -
3Apply patch patch
Upgrade github.com/moby/moby/v2 to 2.0.0-beta.14ステージング環境で 2.0.0-beta.14 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスと、Step 2 で見つけた異常検知の続報チェックを含めること。
-
4Post-deployment verification verify
Replay attack against PUT /containers/{id}/archive on staging to confirm patch closes the vectorパッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番では Step 2 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
