Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Docker MCP Gateway (github.com/docker/mcp-gateway) versions 0.21.0 through before 0.42.2 are vulnerable. An attacker who controls an OCI image that a victim references can embed label content that injects arbitrary arguments into the docker run command the gateway builds, allowing host filesystem mounts and root code execution on the host. Upgrade to version 0.42.2 or later.
