CVE-2026-58198 ChatterBot: Symlink-Following Arbitrary Write via UbuntuCorpusTrainer

ChatterBot is a machine learning, conversational dialog engine for creating chat bots. Prior to 1.2.14, UbuntuCorpusTrainer.extract uses a predictable home-rooted output directory /ubuntudata/ubuntudialogs with a check-then-create pattern followed by tar.extractallpath=self.datapath, allowing a...

CVE-2026-59873

node-tar is a tar archive manipulation library for Node.js. Prior to 7.5.19, node-tar does not enforce hard upper bounds on total decompressed data, entry counts, or decompression ratio in extraction and parsing paths such as src/extract.ts, allowing a small crafted gzip bomb to exhaust disk spac...

PYSEC-2026-1795 pip's fallback tar extraction doesn't check symbolic links point to extraction directory

When extracting a tar archive pip may not check symbolic links point into the extraction directory if the tarfile module doesn't implement PEP 706. Note that upgrading pip to a "fixed" version for this vulnerability doesn't fix all known vulnerabilities that are remediated by using a Python versi...

Kedro allows Remote Code Execution by Pulling Micro Packages

In kedro-org/kedro version 0.19.8, the pullpackage API function allows users to download and extract micro packages from the Internet. However, the function projectwheelmetadata within the code path can execute the setup.py file inside the tar file, leading to remote code execution RCE by running...

Important: python3.12

Issue Overview: The "tarfile" module would still apply normalization of AREGTYPE \x00 blocks to DIRTYPE, even while processing a multi-block member such as GNUTYPELONGNAME or GNUTYPELONGLINK. This could result in a crafted tar archive being misinterpreted by the tarfile module compared to other...

Symlink Attack

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Symlink Attack through improper validation of hardlink targets during tar extraction. An attacker can access or modify files outside the intended extraction directory by crafting a malicious tarball with a hardlink entry whose target is...

GHSA-FXHP-MV3V-67QP `oras-go` tar extraction: Hardlink entry with relative Linkname escapes extract dir via process CWD resolution

Root cause The tar-extraction helper ensureLinkPath at content/file/utils.go:262-275 validates that a hardlink's target resolves inside the extract base, but then returns the original unresolved target string back to the caller: go func ensureLinkPathbaseAbs, baseRel, link, target string string,...

PYSEC-2026-425 MLFlow path traversal vulnerability

A path traversal vulnerability exists in the extractarchivetodir function within the mlflow/pyfunc/dbconnectartifactcache.py file of the mlflow/mlflow repository. This vulnerability, present in versions before v3.7.0, arises due to the lack of validation of tar member paths during extraction. An...

perl-archive-tar: perl-archive-tar: Path traversal via crafted symlinks allows arbitrary file access

A flaw was found in perl-Archive-Tar. Versions before 3.08 for Perl are vulnerable to a path traversal issue. An attacker can craft a malicious tar archive containing symlinks with targets outside the intended extraction directory. This vulnerability allows the attacker to read or write to...

Incus has arbitrary file read+write on host via templates/ symlink in malicious image

Summary A specially crafted image or instance backup can be used to read or create/write arbitrary files on the host; possibly leading to arbitrary command execution. Details For container images, internal/server/storage/utils.go calls archive.UnpackimageFile, destPath, .... The tar extraction pa...

EUVD-2026-39804

Dokku is a docker-powered PaaS. Prior to 0.38.2, the git:from-archive and certs:add commands extract user-supplied tar/zip archives into temporary directories without sanitizing member paths or preventing symlink traversal. GNU tar creates symlinks during extraction and follows them for subsequen...

GHSA-QXVG-H7Q2-HCXH motionEye: LFI → pass‑the‑hash admin → unsafe restore → unauth action exec (RCE)

Summary A multi‑stage chain in motionEye leads to remote code execution. The chain combines: 1. Arbitrary file read LFI via the picture download endpoint for local motion cameras using absolute paths. 2. Pass‑the‑hash admin auth due to accepting request signatures computed with password hashes. 3...

dotnet: .NET: Local file tampering via link following vulnerability

A flaw was found in .NET's System.Formats.Tar library. When extracting a specially crafted TAR archive containing symbolic links, the TarFile.ExtractToDirectory method may incorrectly follow those links and write files outside the intended extraction directory. An attacker could exploit this issu...
