    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2024-12718:
    Allows modifying some file metadata (e.g. last modified) with filter=dataor file permissions (chmod)
    with filter=tarof files outside the extraction directory.
    You are affected by this vulnerability if using the tarfilemodule to extract untrusted tar archives
    using TarFile.extractall()or TarFile.extract()using the filter=parameter with a value of dataor
    tar. See the tarfile  extraction filters documentation
    https://docs.python.org/3/library/tarfile.html#tarfile-extraction-filter for more information. Only
    Python versions 3.12 or later are affected by these vulnerabilities, earlier versions don't include the
    extraction filter feature.

    Note that for Python 3.14 or later the default value of filter=changed from no filtering to `data,
    so if you are relying on this new default behavior then your usage is also affected.

    Note that none of these vulnerabilities significantly affect the installation of source distributions
    which are tar archives as source distributions already allow arbitrary code execution during the build
    process. However when evaluating source distributions it's important to avoid installing source
    distributions with suspicious links.

    CVE-2025-4138:
    Allows the extraction filter to be ignored, allowing symlink targets to point outside the destination
    directory, and the modification of some file metadata.


    You are affected by this vulnerability if using the tarfilemodule to extract untrusted tar archives
    using TarFile.extractall()or TarFile.extract()using the filter=parameter with a value of dataor
    tar. See the tarfile  extraction filters documentation
    https://docs.python.org/3/library/tarfile.html#tarfile-extraction-filter for more information.

    CVE-2025-4517:
    Allows arbitrary filesystem writes outside the extraction directory during extraction with filter=data.


    You are affected by this vulnerability if using the tarfilemodule to extract untrusted tar archives
    using TarFile.extractall()or TarFile.extract()using the filter=parameter with a value of dataor
    tar. See the tarfile  extraction filters documentation

    process. However when evaluating source distributions it's important to avoid installing source
    distributions with suspicious links.

    CVE-2025-4435:
    When using a TarFile.errorlevel = 0and extracting with a filter the documented behavior is that any
    filtered members would be skipped and not extracted. However the actual behavior of TarFile.errorlevel =
    0in affected versions is that the member would still be extracted and not skipped.

    CVE-2025-6069:
    The html.parser.HTMLParser class had worse-case quadratic complexity when processing certain crafted
    malformed inputs potentially leading to amplified denial-of-service.
