Hi Team,

Temporal web and admintools PODs are running with root user, where as frontend, matching, worker and history are running with temporal user.

Please make the change in respective Dockerfiles for web and admintools to run the processes with temporal user , running with root user is a security breach.

bash-5.1# id  
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),4(adm),6(disk),10(wheel),11(floppy),20(dialout),26(tape),27(video)  
bash-5.1# hostname  
temporal-web-68db64d76b-bvjg7

Thanks,  
-Raj

For web [this was updated](https://github.com/temporalio/ui-server/commit/51e5c72f57dc6de72c75a2ff7235e3daf1521d48) and should hopefully be part of the next release (if not next, the one after).

For admin-tools image, created issue [here](https://github.com/temporalio/docker-builds/issues/61).
