Summary

The supplementary blog post link in the Docker Engine 18.09.2 security
fixes section no longer resolves to the original article. Both the old
domain (blog.docker.com/2019/02/...) and the equivalent path on the
current blog (www.docker.com/blog/...) redirect to the blog index
rather than the article itself.

Per maintainer suggestion, this PR updates the link to the Internet
Archive snapshot of the article so the supplementary context remains
available to readers. If the post is restored upstream, the link can
be swapped back to a live URL in a follow-up.

Test plan

  • Verified the Wayback URL returns 200 and contains the original
    CVE-2018-5736 article body
  • docker buildx bake lint vale — no new violations introduced on
    the edited line
  • docker buildx bake test — htmltest passes (3,170 documents, no
    broken internal links)

Let me try reach the team maintaining the blog; it's quite possible it's still there but marked as hidden

The original article at blog.docker.com no longer resolves; both the
old domain and the equivalent path on www.docker.com/blog redirect to
the blog index. Per maintainer suggestion, point at the Internet
Archive snapshot so the supplementary context remains available to
readers until the post is restored upstream.
