CVSS v3.1 |
| In CPython 3.13 and earlier, the tarfile module's data and tar extraction filters are vulnerable to crafted archives containing a hard link to a symbolic link. Such archives may cause extraction to modify the permissions or modification time of a file outside the destination directory, or expose the contents of that file within the extracted tree. |
| Auth0 Symfony is a Symfony SDK for Auth0 Authentication and Management APIs. From 5.0.0-BETA0 until 5.9.0, the Authorizer::authenticate() and Authorizer::supports() paths in the Authorizer security authenticator may accept OAuth 2.0 bearer access tokens from the token URL query parameter as well as the Authorization header for protected HTTP routes. Query-string tokens can be recorded in server logs, browser history, or referrer data and then replayed against protected API endpoints. This issue is fixed in version 5.9.0. |
| File Browser through 2.63.23 applies path rules to the requested lexical path but resolves symbolic links without reapplying rules to the target, allowing authenticated users to bypass deny rules. Attackers can read and overwrite rule-denied files by accessing them through in-scope symbolic link aliases that resolve to denied paths. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.8.2 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the reader-accessible file-read endpoint that follows symlinks when opening authorized asset paths. Attackers with reader role can request a logical asset under data/assets/ that is a symlink to a file outside the workspace and receive the target file bytes, bypassing workspace boundary restrictions. |
| rclone is a command-line program to sync files and directories to and from different cloud storage providers. Prior to 1.75.1, when backend/local runs with --links, a source .rclonelink object can plant a symlink in the destination and later directory metadata is applied through that path. MkdirMetadata, writeMetadataToFile, and setTimes operate when Directory.translatedLink=false, so os.Chown, os.Chmod, os.Chtimes, and birth-time handling can bypass os.Root confinement and follow the symlink. An attacker controlling source contents can therefore apply selected ownership, permissions, modification times, or birth times to a file or directory outside the destination, with --metadata required for chmod and chown while modification time is applied by the normal directory workflow. This issue is fixed in version 1.75.1. |
| Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Windows NTFS allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally. |
| Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Windows NTFS allows an authorized attacker to perform tampering locally. |
| In Flatpak before 1.18.1, a malicious sandboxed app can obtain arbitrary read and write access to files on the host, which can be escalated to arbitrary code execution on the host, a different vulnerability than CVE-2026-76925. Flatpak creates a few app data directories (e.g., /var/cache, /var/data, /var/config, and /var/tmp) in every sandbox on every app launch where, in some cases, components of the path are attacker-controlled. Missing symlink protection can redirect the directories. Some of these directories are bind-mounted by Flatpak by passing the path (e.g., /home/user/.var/app/APP_ID/cache/tmp), which contains attacker-controlled directories (tmp) to bwrap --bind SRC DST. bwrap passes the path on to the kernel, which then follows symlinks. A malicious symlink can point to arbitrary locations on the host and it will become mounted inside the sandbox. |
| MikroTik RouterOS before 7.24.2 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the container package OCI/tar image extraction that allows attackers to write files outside the container root by supplying a crafted container image with symlinks pointing to arbitrary paths. Attackers can exploit unsanitized tar member path extraction during container import via /container/add to achieve root-privileged file creation, directory creation, file deletion via overlayfs whiteout, and hardlink creation on the persistent data partition without ever starting the container. The 7.23.x long-term branch does not contain this fix; the container binaries in container-7.23.3.npk and container-7.23.4.npk are byte-identical, and there is no fixed long-term release at the time of publication. |
| An issue in Robotics-STAR-Lab (SYSU STAR Group) RACER Tested affected version: commit abcdef1234567890 allows an attacker to cause a denial of service via the exploration state machine |
| A vulnerability was found in nanocoai NanoClaw up to 2.1.17. This issue affects the function forwardAttachedFiles of the file src/modules/agent-to-agent/agent-route.ts of the component Attachment Handler. The manipulation results in link following. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The patch is identified as 3f9ed607b7e7a4872747295f75286f1c377d7c33. It is advisable to implement a patch to correct this issue. |
| In tesseract 2.03 and 2.04, an attacker can rewrite an arbitrary user file by guessing the PID and creating a link to the user's file. |
| acl before version 2.4.0 contains a symlink traversal vulnerability in the libacl pathname-based functions acl_get_file(), acl_set_file(), acl_extended_file(), and acl_delete_def_file() that allows local attackers to escalate privileges by replacing any pathname component with a symbolic link. Attackers who control any component of a pathname processed by a privileged caller can redirect ACL read or write operations to arbitrary files or directories, enabling unauthorized manipulation of access control lists and local privilege escalation. |
| Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Windows Resilient File System (ReFS) Deduplication Service allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally. |
| The Okta Verify for Windows uninstaller does not verify whether the user data directory is a filesystem junction before deleting its contents with elevated privileges. The delete operation follows the junction target, resulting in recursive deletion of unintended directory contents. |
| A flaw was found in bubblewrap. During sandbox setup, creating files or directories under the new root can follow a parent symlink onto the host via /oldroot, writing attacker-chosen paths outside the sandbox as the launching user. This happens before the sandboxed process starts. This issue is GHSA-pxhw-h44j-8pfx. It is fixed in bubblewrap 0.12.0. |
| A flaw was found in crun. When the container configuration does not give /dev a dedicated mount, terminal setup can redirect /dev/console onto an attacker-controlled path, including via the read-only-rootfs bind-mount fallback. Affected versions are crun 1.29.1 and earlier. Default configurations that mount a fresh /dev are not exposed. No fixed release is available yet. |
| A flaw was found in crun. After pivot_root, reopening /dev/null for stdio can follow a symlink and attach a host file to container stdio, then change that file's ownership. Affected versions are crun 1.29.1 and earlier. Default configurations that mount a fresh /dev are not exposed. No fixed release is available yet. |
| When tarfile extracts a link on a system that doesn't support links, it falls back to extracting a member from the archive. In this case, the filter function is run twice: once for the extracted member, and once with name set to the location of the link. For one of the calls, the return value was ignored. Instead, the member should be skipped if either call returns None. |
| In PCRE2 before 10.48, pcre2_jit_match mishandles a previously copied subject being passed in as a context. An incorrect free operation can occur. |
