Docker Sandboxes read-only runtime mount writable through its shared-export alias

Published Aug 12, 2026 · Updated Aug 12, 2026 · Assigned by Docker

Description

Docker Sandboxes (sbx) applies the read-only intent of a runtime host mount to the in-guest container bind only: the underlying virtio-fs host-edge grant is added to the sandbox's policy-share allowlist with no access mode. The directory stays writable at its shared-export path, so unprivileged code inside the sandbox can derive that path and write to a host directory the operator attached read-only.
