Vulnerability description
DayBreach CVE AI Research
CVE-2026-33997 has vendor, distribution, patch and security-source records on file. We can compare them and prepare an explanation linked to the evidence.
Moby is an open source container framework. Prior to version 29.3.1, a security vulnerability has been detected that allows plugins privilege validation to be bypassed during docker plugin install. Due to an error in the daemon's privilege comparison logic, the daemon may incorrectly accept a privilege set that differs from the one approved by the user. Plugins that request exactly one privilege are also affected, because no comparison is performed at all. This issue has been patched in version 29.3.1.
