  - extract-zip through 2.0.1 containment-checks only the parent directory of each archive entry and never the
    entry's own final path component, so an archive containing two entries with identical names - a symlink
    whose target is outside the destination, followed by a regular file - writes through the planted symlink
    and yields an arbitrary file write outside the destination directory. (CVE-2026-19693)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
