CVE-2026-11940

CVE-2026-11940 concerns tarfile.extractall() in Python’s tarfile handling where a crafted archive can bypass the filter for data/tar and cause a symlink outside the destination directory to be created by abusing a hardlink referencing a deeper symlink. The extraction fallback validates the symlin...
