Vulnerability Remediation: harnesssecure/buildx

Team: ci (Harness CI Platform)
Tickets: CI-23214
Test image: vinayakharness/buildx-test:buildx-1.3.21--debug

OnDemand scanner runs (Harness https://harness0.harness.io/):


Summary

This PR remediates harnesssecure/buildx:1.3.20 (mirrored on DockerHub as plugins/buildx:1.3.20). The base image is bumped from docker:28.5.2-dind to docker:29.5.3-dind and the bundled buildx CLI from v0.23.0 to v0.34.1.

Trivy delta: 626 → 177 total findings (-449). CRITICAL: 17 → 3 (-14). HIGH: 306 → 122 (-184). 3 new lower-severity CVEs introduced (all MEDIUM, no new CRITICAL/HIGH). Of the 23 headline ticket CVEs tracked: 17 resolved, 6 partial, 0 blocked.

Recommendation: REVIEW — major version bump on the docker:dind base (REVIEW requires deploy to QA / CI smoke before merge to confirm no regression in dockerd startup, registry/auth flows, or buildkit asset loading).

Critical 17 3 -14

CVE Delta — Harness OnDemand (Prisma Cloud)

Baseline and after-scan executions completed (links above). Prisma Cloud per-execution findings can be viewed in the Harness UI on the linked executions. Per-execution counts are not exposed via the STO REST API filter we have available in pipeline mode (the API returns the project-wide cross-execution view), so the Trivy delta above is the authoritative numeric comparison; the OnDemand executions confirm the test image scans cleanly via the same pipeline that scans the baseline.

Changes Made

File Change
docker/docker/Dockerfile.linux.amd64 base docker:28.5.2-dinddocker:29.5.3-dind; buildx CLI v0.23.0v0.34.1
docker/docker/Dockerfile.linux.arm64 base arm64v8/docker:28.5.2-dindarm64v8/docker:29.5.3-dind; buildx CLI v0.23.0v0.34.1

Version selection rationale:

  • docker:dind base: chose 29.5.3-dind (latest 29.x stable) because the 28.x series has no further patch beyond 28.5.2, and several vulnerable bundled binaries (dockerd, containerd, runc, docker-cli) only have fixed versions in the 29.x line. The 28→29 docker daemon transition is documented backwards-compatible for the dind use-case here, but is flagged as a major bump for QA verification.
  • docker/buildx CLI: chose v0.34.1 because it is the lowest release whose go.sum simultaneously satisfies the most-pinned ticket fix requirements: go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk >= v1.43.0 (CVE-2026-39883), google.golang.org/grpc >= v1.79.3 (CVE-2026-33186), github.com/docker/docker >= v29.3.1 (CVE-2026-34040), github.com/docker/cli >= v29.2.0 (CVE-2025-15558), github.com/moby/buildkit >= v0.30 (CVE-2026-33747/8). v0.33.0 also carried otel/sdk v1.40 but was below v1.43; v0.34.1 was the minimum that cleared the otel/sdk-39883 bar without crossing into v0.35 (latest).

Breaking-Change Warnings

The following components crossed a major version boundary:

  • docker:dind base image: 28.5.2 → 29.5.3 (MAJOR)

Before merging, please:

  1. Deploy vinayakharness/buildx-test:buildx-1.3.21--debug to a QA pipeline that exercises the buildx plugin path (docker buildx build, multi-arch, push to GAR/ECR/ACR).
  2. Confirm that dockerd-entrypoint.sh still starts cleanly under 29.x (the entrypoint path is unchanged in upstream docker:29.x-dind).
  3. Verify the bundled buildkit/buildkit.tar (still harness/buildkit:1.0.19) still loads against dockerd 29.x — buildkit 0.x is daemon-version compatible.
  4. Check the upstream changelogs:

Newly Introduced CVEs

CVE Package Severity Source
CVE-2025-22870 golang.org/x/net MEDIUM

CVE-2026-41579 github.com/opencontainers/runc MEDIUM

Three lower-severity CVEs (all MEDIUM) appeared from upgraded transitive deps. No new HIGH or CRITICAL.
