The daily firehose — everything the toolchain shipped today, already filtered.

We read every release from the 1309 tools on our watchlist at the source — GitHub and GitLab release notes, vendor release pages and changelogs, project blogs and feeds, vendor press releases, and the source code behind the tag. Bug-fix-only releases and non-product newsroom noise are dropped; what's left is summarized down to the new capability, how to try it, and any screenshots or videos the release itself published. Every entry links to the sources it was built from.

Three unrelated things stand out. Hunters collapsed twelve legacy login and EDREDREndpoint detection and response, monitoring computers for suspicious behavior and providing investigation and response controls, such as isolating a device. detectors into one anomalous-login detector, so a tuning change lands in one place instead of twelve. Endor Labs' Package Firewall now blocks malicious VS Code extensions before a developer installs one. And Lakera can now deny an agent's tool calls at runtime, not just flag them after.

  • detect

    Cut twelve overlapping login detections down to one you can actually tune

    Hunters consolidated and deprecated twelve legacy login/EDR detectors into a single anomalous-login detector, ending the duplicate-alert problem where one suspicious sign-in fans out into a dozen findings that all need triage. Splunk ES 8.2 adds detection versioning, so a rule change is a tracked revision rather than an unattributable edit when a detection stops firing.

  • protect

    Stop a malicious dependency or a rogue agent tool call before it executes

    Endor Labs extended Package Firewall to VS Code extensions, closing a supply-chain path that most SCASCASoftware composition analysis, identifying third-party dependencies and checking them for known vulnerabilities and license issues. It covers software a team uses rather than writes itself. never looked at — the editor plugin runs with the developer's credentials and file access but is installed outside any package manifest. Lakera's runtime Tool Allow/Deny List moves agent guardrails from post-hoc detection to enforcement, so an agent that reasons its way to an unintended tool is blocked at the call rather than reviewed afterward.

  • protect

    Scan the authenticated parts of an app that used to fall outside the crawl

    Intruder's authenticated scans now follow auth and API flows onto subdomains and third-party services — the SSOSSOSingle sign-on, using one identity provider to sign in to multiple applications. It reduces separate passwords and centralizes account and access management. redirect and hosted login handoff that previously ended a crawl and left everything behind the login untested.

Non-document lookup checks a user's national ID number and personal details against a government register, credit-bureau, financial-services, utility, or residential-records source per country — no photograph or document upload required. Config keys id_lookup.enabled, id_lookup.max_attempts, id_lookup.skip_liveness_and_face_match, id_lookup.on_partial_match, id_lookup.on_no_match, and id_lookup.on_provider_error control availability, retry count (1–5, default 2, counting only attempts the source actually answered), and per-failure routing. In countries where the register returns a portrait (South Africa, Nigeria, Argentina, Panama), automatic selfie capture, passive liveness, and face match run so downstream Liveness and Face Match steps can be skipped. Session results gain a Registry comparison panel (compared fields, provided vs. source values, match verdicts, source name, timestamp, attempt count) and a See details view of the expected request/response for each lookup source.

Configure non-doc lookup attempts and fallback rules per country so users fall back to document capture only after exhausting lookup options.
📍In the Didit console, go to ID Verification › Countries and allowed ID methods, select a country, then open Additional settings and set lookup attempts (1–5) and enable fallback to document capture.
Enable non-document national-ID lookup for a specific country so users can verify without uploading a document photo.
📍In the console, open your workflow → ID Verification step → Countries tab, select the target country, and toggle Non-document lookup on. Set retry count (1–5, default 2) and choose the fallback action for each failure mode (partial match, no match, no source response).

Adds the SKILLSPECTOR_MAX_WORKFLOW_SECONDS environment variable to set a custom positive finite aggregate workflow deadline for the end-to-end workflow and transitive traversal; invalid, zero, negative, infinite, and NaN values fall back to the new 600-second default (raised from the previous 60 seconds). The configured deadline is applied consistently across direct CLI, recursive, transitive, and multi-skill analysis paths, preventing larger valid scans from timing out.

Override the default 600-second deadline when scanning a large recursive skill tree that needs more time.
$ SKILLSPECTOR_MAX_WORKFLOW_SECONDS=1800 skillspector scan ./my-large-skill/
Set a persistent custom deadline in a Docker env-file so all container-based scans share the same budget.
$ SKILLSPECTOR_PROVIDER=anthropic
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
SKILLSPECTOR_MAX_WORKFLOW_SECONDS=1200
— Names exact env var, old/new defaults, and fallback behaviour with runnable examples. v2.11.1

Docker Sandboxes isolates applications in lightweight containers, providing secure, reproducible environments for development and deployment.

Docker Sandboxes' v0.42.0 window adds cloud-hosted sandboxes, declarative sbxenv.yaml environment files with lifecycle hooks and parameterized args, native Devin agent support, a persistent shared skills store, and expanded kit customization (arguments, OCIOCIOpen Container Initiative standard, maintained by the Linux Foundation, defining the image format and runtime spec that container tools share so images built once run anywhere OCI-compliant./Git kit references, mixins), alongside registry mirror routing, mountless sandboxes with named reattachment, MCP GatewayMCP GatewayA server that sits between MCP clients and one or more Model Context Protocol backends, routing tool calls and aggregating context sources so a single endpoint exposes many AI-agent integrations at once.

Those requests can reach internal services the attacker cannot access directly./scope controls, and a machine-wide Windows installer — plus breaking changes to default port binding and .sbxenv.yaml variable interpolation.

└──▷ WHAT SHIPPED · 16 FEATURES 2 OF 16 FEATURES most completely described first
what's the number?

Each feature carries 0–100 for how completely the vendor documented it — not how big or important the work is. A major capability described in eight words scores low, and that is the finding.

  • depth0–40 what it does and how it works or what changed
  • specificity0–30 names real surfaces — APIs, flags, formats, limits, numbers
  • actionability0–30 enough to go use it — a named endpoint, flag, or config key tops this; a UI path is a starting point

Code and config rank first by construction: a documented endpoint, flag or config key scores at the top of specificity and actionability, so it sorts above a feature described only in prose. Under 60 the notes go thin — everything below the “thinner coverage” line is thinner documentation, not smaller work. Hover any meter for that feature's three sub-scores.

Declarative sbxenv.yaml environment files new 100

Introduces sbxenv.yaml files that declaratively define a sandbox — workspaces, kits, ports, secrets, bindings, MCP registrations and sandbox options — managed via new sbx env plan [PATH...] (preview changes without applying), sbx env create --auto-approve (apply unattended), sbx env run --env-arg NAME=VALUE/--env-args-file <file>, --skip-host-commands, and --force (approve destroy of an in-use sandbox). A top-level args block supports default, required, enum, pattern, description and channel fields referenced as ${{ env.args.NAME }}; a lifecycle block defines initialize, postCreate and preRemove phases with cmd, label, workdir and timeout, exposing SBX_LIFECYCLE_PHASE, SBX_ENV_FILE, SBX_ENV_FILES, SBX_ENV_DIR, SBX_SANDBOX_NAME, SBX_AGENT and SBX_WORKSPACE to host commands. A user-level ~/.sbxenv.yaml merges beneath the project file as shared defaults; sbxenv.yaml is now read in preference to .sbxenv.yaml when both exist. Sandbox options include shareSkills: false, display, gpu and usb; env.rememberHostCommands records approval of lifecycle/credential host commands until the command text changes, and sbx env create now shares imported skills by default.

Preview exactly what an environment file will change on the host before committing — useful before a first apply or after editing sbxenv.yaml.
$ sbx env plan ./web-app-env/sbxenv.yaml
Supply per-run argument values (e.g. target a beta release channel and a specific API endpoint) without editing the shared environment file.
$ sbx env run --env-arg channel=beta --env-arg endpoint=https://api.example.com
Parameterize a sandbox environment so the same file can target different release channels and API endpoints, with validation enforced at apply time.
yaml
args:
  channel:
    default: stable
    description: Release channel
    enum:
      - stable
      - beta
  endpoint:
    required: true
    description: API endpoint
    pattern: "https://.*"

env:
  RELEASE_CHANNEL: ${{ env.args.channel }}
  API_ENDPOINT: ${{ env.args.endpoint }}

lifecycle:
  initialize:
    - label: Prepare workspace
      cmd: test -d web-app || git clone https://github.com/example/web-app
      timeout: 5m
— Extensive named blocks, flags and env vars; mechanism thoroughly explained. v0.42.0
02 00
Kit arguments and remote kit references new 95

Adds --kit-arg name=value and --kit-arg <kit-name>.name=value (prefixed to target a specific kit, taking precedence over unprefixed values) to sbx run/sbx create, supplying typed inputs to schema v2 kits declaring an args: block, interpolated via ${{ kit.args.<name> }}; adds --kit-args-file <path> to load reusable name=value files (blank lines/# comments ignored, later files and explicit --kit-arg override). Supports launching kits from OCI registries (sbx run docker.io/sbx/droid-kit:latest) and Git repos (git+https://github.com/docker/sbx-kits-contrib.git#ref=v0.1.0&dir=amp), plus local directory/ZIP paths starting with ./ or ../. From v0.42.0, sbx run <sandbox-kit-ref> PATH... and sbx create <sandbox-kit-ref> PATH... take the kit reference positionally, deprecating the old sbx run <name> --kit <ref> form — --kit (repeatable) is now used for attaching mixins. The same --kit-arg/--kit-args-file flags apply to sbx kit validate and sbx kit inspect.

Supply per-kit arguments from a file when creating a sandbox — useful for reproducible CI pipelines where secrets are kept out of shell history.
$ sbx create ./my-agent/ . --kit ./my-mixin/ --kit-args-file ./kit.args --kit-arg my-mixin.channel=stable
Launch a versioned sandbox kit directly from an OCI registry, targeting a specific tag.
$ sbx run docker.io/sbx/droid-kit:latest
— Names every flag, precedence rule and command; mechanism fully explained. v0.42.0
03 00
Registry mirror for Docker Hub pulls new 88

Adds platform.images.registryMirror (set via sbx settings set platform.images.registryMirror <host>, removed via sbx settings unset platform.images.registryMirror or an empty value) to route Docker Hub pulls for sandbox templates and OCI kits through an organization's registry mirror, with optional port and path-prefix support; when the value is a non-loopback host with no path prefix, the mirror is also propagated to Docker Engine inside the sandbox so in-sandbox docker pull uses it. The same mirror can be declared directly in a registry mirror block in sbxenv.yaml.

Route all sandbox template, OCI kit, and in-sandbox Docker Hub pulls through a corporate registry mirror.
$ sbx settings set platform.images.registryMirror registry.example.com
Mirror sandbox template and OCI kit pulls through a registry that stores Docker Hub content under a repository path prefix (in-sandbox Docker Engine will not use this mirror).
$ sbx settings set platform.images.registryMirror registry.example.com/docker-remote
Remove the registry mirror configuration so sandbox templates and OCI kits pull directly from Docker Hub.
$ sbx settings unset platform.images.registryMirror
— Exact setting keys and commands given; mirror propagation mechanism explained. v0.42.0
04 00
MCP Gateway SSRF checks and auth scope controls new 88

Adds --skip-ssrf-check to sbx mcp add to suppress the SSRF warning/check when registering a trusted internal MCP server resolving to a private, loopback, link-local or cloud-metadata address, and now allows --url on such addresses with a warning instead of outright rejection. Adds --skip-auth to sbx mcp add (the older --skip_auth still works). Adds --scope to sbx mcp auth to override recorded default scopes for a single authorization (resolution order: --scope argument, sbx mcp add --scope default, protected-resource required scopes, then none) and --no-scope to suppress both recorded and required scopes (cannot combine with --scope). Adds --json to sbx mcp auth status reporting granted, default, supported, duplicate and unexpected scopes.

Register a trusted internal MCP server that resolves to a private IP without triggering the SSRF warning, so internal tooling can be wired up without noise.
$ sbx mcp add myserver --url https://internal.corp/mcp --skip-ssrf-check
Authorize against an OAuth-backed MCP server with a narrower scope than the recorded defaults — useful when a workflow only needs read access.
$ sbx mcp auth serverx --scope read
Pull machine-readable auth-status JSON for the Notion MCP server to feed into a CI check or audit script.
$ sbx mcp auth status notion --json
— All flags and scope-resolution order named with runnable examples. v0.42.0
05 00
Native Devin agent support new 80

Adds sbx run devin to launch a Devin agent in a sandbox (workspace path optional, defaults to current directory), built on the docker/sandbox-templates:devin-docker base image which can be customized to pre-install tools. Reads AGENTS.md from the workspace for agent-specific instructions and starts Devin with --permission-mode dangerous --respect-workspace-trust=false by default. Devin credentials are captured after first interactive sign-in and reused automatically for future Devin sandboxes through a proxy.

Run Devin against a specific project directory in an isolated sandbox — useful for CI or one-off agent tasks on a repo you don't want touching your host environment.
$ sbx run devin ~/my-project
Run Devin from within the project directory itself, letting the workspace default to the current directory.
$ cd ~/my-project && sbx run devin
— Command, base image, defaults and credential flow all specified. v0.42.0
06 00
Mountless sandboxes, named reattachment and file transfer new 78

Adds mountless sandbox creation via sbx create --name <name> <agent> (no host directory bind mount), reattachable later with sbx run --name <name> from any working directory without re-specifying the agent. Adds sbx cp to copy files between host and sandbox by absolute sandbox path, e.g. sbx cp ./config.json my-sandbox:/home/agent/workspace/ and sbx cp my-sandbox:/home/agent/workspace/output.log ./. Appending :ro to a workspace path mounts an extra workspace read-only inside the sandbox.

Create a mountless scratch sandbox and attach to it later — useful when you want an isolated environment with no host files exposed.
$ sbx create --name scratch claude
sbx run --name scratch
Pull generated output or logs out of a running sandbox to the host without needing a mounted workspace.
$ sbx cp my-sandbox:/home/agent/workspace/output.log ./
sbx cp ./config.json my-sandbox:/home/agent/workspace/
— Commands and exact syntax given for each named capability. v0.42.0
07 00
Agent skills store and management commands new 75

Adds sbx skills add to install all skills from a Git repo (owner/repository shorthand or HTTPSHTTPSHTTP carried over an encrypted TLS connection. It protects traffic in transit and lets a browser verify the server's certificate./SSH URL), with --skill to install specific named skills (comma-separated, e.g. --skill frontend-design --skill pdf); sbx skills ls lists installed skills; sbx skills update [names...] refreshes all or named skills; sbx skills rm removes one or more. Skills live in a persistent shared store that survives sandbox deletion and is automatically shared with new sandboxes running a supported agent.

Install specific skills from a GitHub repository into the shared store so every new sandbox picks them up automatically.
$ sbx skills add anthropics/skills --skill frontend-design --skill pdf
Refresh only the skills you actively use after upstream updates, without touching the rest of the store.
$ sbx skills update frontend-design pdf
Audit what is currently installed, then remove a skill no longer needed by running agents.
$ sbx skills ls && sbx skills rm frontend-design
— All subcommands and flags named; store persistence briefly explained. v0.42.0
08 00
Windows MSI installers for machine-wide and per-user install new 70

Adds DockerSandboxesMachine.msi for silent, machine-wide Windows installation via msiexec.exe /i DockerSandboxesMachine.msi /quiet, installing to %ProgramFiles%\DockerSandboxes and adding its bin directory to the system PATH with no per-user install required. Per-user installation via WinGet (DockerSandboxes.msi) places files in %LOCALAPPDATA%\DockerSandboxes and updates the user PATH without admin privileges.

Silently deploy Docker Sandboxes to all users on a managed Windows fleet from an elevated PowerShell prompt.
$ msiexec.exe /i DockerSandboxesMachine.msi /quiet
— Exact installer names, paths and commands given for both modes. v0.42.0
09 00
JSON output for read-only commands and server state new 70

Adds --json output to read-only commands secret ls, version, mcp ls, skills ls, policy inspect and the kit verification commands. sbx version --json now reports a server.state field (running or unavailable) so scripts can check backend reachability without parsing error text.

Check in CI whether the sbx daemon is reachable without parsing human-readable error text.
$ sbx version --json | jq -r '.server.state'
— Lists affected commands and new field, thin on mechanism. v0.42.0
10 00
Published ports default to tcp4 only breaking 70

sbx ports --publish and kit-declared ports now default to tcp4 instead of dual-stack tcp, so a published port no longer listens on ::1; use --publish 8080:3000/tcp to restore dual-stack behaviour.

— Exact before/after behaviour and restoring flag given. v0.42.0
11 00
Configurable sandbox volume size new 65

Sandbox Docker volume size is configurable at creation time via the DOCKER_SANDBOXES_DOCKER_SIZE environment variable (minimum 512 MiB); v0.42.0 changes the default from 50 GB to 10 GB (sparse file) to reduce host disk usage. Existing volumes are not resized.

— Names env var and exact default change but limited scope. v0.42.0
12 00
sbxenv.yaml interpolation and workspace defaults changed breaking 65

${VAR} interpolation in .sbxenv.yaml is no longer expanded — use the new args: block with ${{ env.args.NAME }} syntax instead. An environment file that declares no workspace: now creates a sandbox with no workspace bind mount; write workspace: . to mount the project directory as before.

— Two named breaking changes with exact syntax and workaround. v0.42.0
13 02
Cloud-hosted sandboxes via sbx --cloud new 60

Adds sbx --cloud to run AI agents on Docker-managed cloud infrastructure, with sbx --cloud run, sbx --cloud cp, sbx --cloud secret and sbx --cloud policy covering file transfer, credentials and outbound network policy, plus sbx move to copy a sandbox filesystem between local and cloud environments.

Run a cloud-hosted Claude agent on Docker-managed infrastructure and give it a name for the project session.
$ sbx --cloud run claude --name cloud-project
— Names subcommands but omits internal mechanism of cloud infrastructure. v0.42.0
thinner coverage below
14 00
MCP policy governance and audit improvements improved 30

A declined @requireApproval prompt on a local MCP server now generates its own audit record with policy attribution and a context digest, and governance resolution issues are now surfaced in sbx policy output and the dashboard.

— Describes outcome only; no named endpoint or config surface. v0.42.0
15 00
Automatic diagnostics bundle upload on daemon error new 15

Docker Sandboxes can now upload a diagnostics bundle automatically when the daemon hits an error, after opt-in.

— One-line description; no mechanism, trigger detail or format given. v0.42.0
16 00
Clipboard sync from sandbox to host new 15

Clipboard commands inside local sandboxes can now copy text to the host clipboard.

— Single sentence; no command or configuration surface named. v0.42.0
