Summary: in docker through 18.06.1-ce-rc2, the api endpoints behind the 'docker cp' command are vulnerable to a symlink-exchange attack with directory traversal, giving attackers arbitrary read-write access to the host filesystem with root privileges, because daemon/archive.go does not do archive operations on a frozen filesystem (or from within a chroot).
