AI-suggested

Upgrade Docker Desktop to version 4.94.0 or later, which redacts sensitive IPC payloads including the Docker Hub access token from logs. Note that logs created by earlier versions are not rewritten or sanitized by the fix and may still contain exposed tokens. Users should securely delete or rotate any tokens that may have been exposed in older logs. Restrict access to Docker Desktop logs and diagnostic bundles to trusted users only.

Description

Docker Desktop versions prior to 4.94.0 could log the user's Docker Hub access token in cleartext within application logs and diagnostics bundles. This token, a JWT, was exposed because IPC payloads that were bare JSON strings or arrays were not redacted before logging. An attacker with read access to these logs could steal the token and impersonate the user on Docker Hub while the token remains valid. Version 4.94.0 of Docker Desktop introduced redaction of these sensitive payloads. However, logs created by earlier versions remain unaltered and may still contain exposed tokens after upgrading.
