This issue has been fixed in Docker Desktop 4.23.0.

La funcionalidad afectada está disponible solo para clientes de Docker Business y asume un entorno donde los usuarios no reciben privilegios de administrador o root local. Este problema se solucionó en Docker Desktop 4.23.0. Versiones de Docker Desktop afectadas: desde 4.13.0 anterior a 4.23.0.
