CVE-2026-106581
An attacker able to provide a crafted package and convince a user to approve the Docker-signed UAC prompt could execute attacker-controlled installer actions as LocalSystem.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.07%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
