Before 4.92.0, Docker Desktop for Windows did not verify the signature of a package supplied to Docker Desktop Installer.exe install -package. An attacker able to provide a crafted package and convince a user to approve the Docker-signed UAC prompt could execute attacker-controlled installer actions as LocalSystem.
