Recommendation: Monitor — no exploitation signal at the moment.

apko allows users to build and publish OCI container images built from apk packages. Starting in version 0.27.0 and prior to version 0.29.5, critical files were inadvertently set to 0666, which could likely be abused for root escalation. Version 0.29.5 contains a fix for the issue.
