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...

UNIX Symbolic Link (Symlink) Following

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to UNIX Symbolic Link Symlink Following during docker cp mount setup before subsequent mount syscall. An attacker can overwrite arbitrary files on the host or cause denial of service by exploiting a race condition where a symlink is create...

SUSE CVE-2026-6475

Symlink following in PostgreSQL pgbasebackup plain format and in pgrewind allows an origin superuser to overwrite local files, e.g. /var/lib/postgres/.bashrc, that hijack the operating system account. It will remain the case that starting the server after these commands implicitly trusts the orig...

DEBIAN-CVE-2026-44471

gitoxide is an implementation of git written in Rust. Prior to 0.21.1, a malicious tree can be constructed that will, when checked out with gitoxide, permit writing an attacker-controlled symlink into any existing directory the user has write access to. During checkout, all symlink index entries...

CVE-2026-44471

CVE-2026-44471 affects gitoxide prior to 0.21.1. A crafted tree can cause symlink prefix reuse during checkout, allowing an attacker-controlled symlink to be created into any writable directory via the worktree checkout flow. The vulnerability arises because certain cache/prefix handling in gix_f...
