GHSA-VP62-88P7-QQF5 Docker: Race condition in docker cp allows creation of arbitrary empty files on the host via symlink swap

Summary A race condition during docker cp mount setup allows a malicious container to create empty files or directories at arbitrary absolute paths on the host filesystem. This advisory covers the race during mountpoint creation. The related race during the subsequent mount syscall is tracked in...

CLSA-2026-1779122764 nano: Fix of CVE-2024-5742

CVE-2024-5742: emergencysave applied chmod/chown to a path after the descriptor was closed, allowing a symlink swap to redirect the ownership change to an attacker-controlled file - Backport of upstream commit 5e7a3c2e from nano v8.0, adapted to the 5.6.1 codebase writefile signature predates the...

Symlink Attack

Overview apm-cli is a MCP configuration tool Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Symlink Attack during the integration when symbolic links under certain directories are dereferenced and their target file contents are copied into project deployment directories. An attacker can acce...

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...

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...
