Isn’t the real problem mentioned in this article that people are running their docker daemon unauthenticated on public endpoints? That’s not the default behavior right? So people have actually gone out of their way to make themselves insecure.

Look at the names of the containers in the article. Nobody is pulling these themselves. The problem is attackers compromising docker hosts and pulling arbitrary containers.

What safeguards does docker provide against exposing the daemon publicly, accidentally or otherwise?
