QID 997041: GO (Go) Security Update for github.com/moby/buildkit (GHSA-wr6v-9f75-vh2g)

It was possible to use these APIs to ask BuildKit to run a container with elevated privileges. Normally, running such containers is only allowed if special security.insecure entitlement is enabled both by buildkitd configuration and allowed by the user initializing the build request.
