Path Traversal in BuildKit (CVE-2026-75593)
Summary
Path traversal in BuildKit (CVE-2026-75593). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
BuildKit is a toolkit for converting source code to build artifacts in an efficient, expressive and repeatable manner. Prior to 0.31.2, a custom client can produce such an upload request to the BuildKit daemon that files can escape from the BuildKit-controlled state directory. The client needs to have valid permissions to access BuildKit control API to issue builds, eg., bypass authentication, etc. This issue is fixed in version 0.31.2.
