CVE-2025-49842

conda-forge-webservices is the web app deployed to run conda-forge admin commands and linting. Prior to version 2025.3.24, the conda_forge_webservice Docker container executes commands without specifying a user. By default, Docker containers run as the root user, which increases the risk of privilege escalation and host compromise if a vulnerability is exploited. This issue has been patched in version 2025.3.24.

Antes de la versión 2025.3.24, el contenedor Docker conda_forge_webservice ejecutaba comandos sin especificar un usuario. De forma predeterminada, los contenedores Docker se ejecutan como usuario root, lo que aumenta el riesgo de escalada de privilegios y vulnerabilidad del host si se explota una vulnerabilidad.
