Context: Docker bypasses all UFW firewall rules
(lemmy.world)
Docker docs:
Docker routes container traffic in the nat table, which means that packets are diverted before it reaches the INPUT and OUTPUT chains that ufw uses. Packets are routed before the firewall rules can be applied, effectively ignoring your firewall configuration.
Docker spesifically creates rules for itself which are by default open to everyone. UFW (and underlying eftables/iptables) just does as it's told by the system root (via docker). I can't really blame the system when it does what it's told to do and it's been administrators job to manage that in a reasonable way since forever.
And (not related to linux or docker in any way) there's still big commercial software which highly paid consultants install and the very first thing they do is to turn the firewall off....
