Omarchy: Any User Process Can Escalate to Root

A security issue in Omarchy’s default Docker configuration meant that essentially every program running in the user’s desktop session could escalate to root without a password, sudo, or a privilege prompt. If you use Omarchy, the most important takeaway is simple: update to 4.0.1. I reported this issue privately through the project’s responsible-disclosure process. The underlying configuration has since been patched, so I’m publishing the details now to explain what the issue is and let users know to update their systems.

      I don’t know how I can give you some “sources” for that, but feel free to have a look at the few blog posts of the guy and make your mind.

      The above is my personal opinion which I have formed by reading the blog posts of DHH so I am not aware of any “sources” for that. Feel free to have a look at what this guy stands for: https://world.hey.com/dhh
