rclone: Directory metadata (chmod/chown/chtimes) applied through a planted symlink in rclone local --links escapes the destination

Summary With -l/--links, rclone's local backend recreates a source .rclonelink object as a real symlink at the destination verbatim preserved by design for faithful backups. Directory-metadata application, however, does not go through the os.Root sandbox and does not use NOFOLLOW syscalls. A loca...

CVE-2026-88016 rclone: Directory metadata (chmod/chown/chtimes) applied through a planted symlink in rclone local --links escapes the destination

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...

CVE-2026-88016

rclone prior to 1.75.1 is vulnerable to a symlink-escape issue in the backend/local --links mode. A source .rclonelink object can plant a symlink in the destination, and subsequent directory metadata operations (MkdirMetadata, writeMetadataToFile, setTimes) — which run when Directory.translatedLi...

EUVD-2026-74778

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...

util-linux: util-linux: X-mount.subdir detached-tree resolution can escape via intermediate symlinks

The X-mount.subdir option uses a detached-tree fast path on Linux 6.15 and later and passes the configured subdirectory to opentree with ATSYMLINKNOFOLLOW. That flag does not stop intermediate symlink traversal or keep resolution inside the newly mounted filesystem. A local unprivileged user with...

CVE-2026-78409

A flaw in util-linux 's X-mount.subdir mount option allows a local unprivileged user to escape the intended subdirectory and attach an arbitrary host path at the intended mountpoint. On Linux 6.15 and later , the option takes a detached-tree fast path that calls open_tree() with AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLL...

CVE-2026-70622

A flaw was found in tar-rs. This vulnerability, a symlink escape, allows a local attacker to read sensitive files outside of the intended directory. By planting specially crafted symbolic links in an untrusted directory, an attacker can trick a privileged process, when archiving that directory,...
