go-billy: Lack of depth and cycle detection in symlink resolution may lead to infinite loops and resource exhaustion

Impact Multiple components may improperly handle crafted or malformed input, resulting in panics, infinite loops, uncontrolled recursion, or excessive resource consumption. These issues arise from insufficient validation and missing safety mechanisms such as cycle detection, recursion limits, or...

CVE-2026-5958

A Time-of-Check Time-of-Use TOCTOU race condition was found in GNU sed. When the -i in-place and --follow-symlinks options are used together, sed resolves the symlink but reopens the path for writing. An attacker with write access to the directory containing the symlink can swap it between the...

golang: internal/syscall/unix: Root.Chmod can follow symlinks out of the root

A flaw was found in the internal/syscall/unix package in the Go standard library. If the target of the Root.Chmod function is replaced with a symbolic link during execution, specifically after Root.Chmod checks the target but before acting, the chmod operation will be performed on the file the...
