                     CVE-2026-41567 CVE-2026-41568 CVE-2026-42306

    Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in the Docker container engine
    and in the bundled BuildKit build toolkit, which may result in privilege
    escalation, arbitrary file access on the host, or bypass of authorization
    policies.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in
    version 26.1.5+dfsg1-9+deb13u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your docker.io packages.

    For the detailed security status of docker.io please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/docker.io

    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
