When processing a 'container://' reference path, the tool incorrectly executes an untrusted container image's entrypoint instead of merely extracting data from a stopped container. This allows a remote attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution on the operator's workstation. If the Docker daemon requires elevated privileges, the untrusted code may execute with root-mediated daemon privileges, posing a significant security risk.\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Important · affected: Pen Drive Powered by Red Hat Lightspeed · no fix planned: Pen Drive Powered by Red Hat Lightspeed · updated 2026-10-07 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-87114.json)\n- **RHSA-2026:74381** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.20 · released 2026-10-06 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:74381)\n- **RHSA-2026:74384** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.21 · released 2026-10-06 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:74384)\n- **RHSA-2026:74430** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.22 · released 2026-10-06 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:74430)","depth":"twilight","depthScore":39,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":39.1,"likelihood":0.1,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
