Amazon Linux 2023 : python3.14, python3.14-devel, python3.14-freethreading (ALAS2023-2026-1962)

It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-1962 advisory. When using the tarfile module with a file opened in streaming mode mode=r| the tarfile module did not properly handle EOF, making archive parsing take exponentially longer. CVE-2026-11972 Tenable has...

OESA-2026-3069 python3 security update

Python combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. It has modules, classes, exceptions, very high level dynamic data types, and dynamic typing. There are interfaces to many system calls and libraries, as well as to various windowing systems. New built-in modules are easily written in C or C...

Amazon Linux 2023 : python3, python3-devel, python3-idle (ALAS2023-2026-1933)

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-1933 advisory. 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 ...

Amazon Linux 2023 : python3.13, python3.13-devel, python3.13-freethreading (ALAS2023-2026-1910)

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-1910 advisory. tarfile.extractall with the 'data' or 'tar'filter could be bypassed by a crafted archive where a hardlinkreferences a symlink stored at a deeper name than the hardlink itself.The extraction...

CVE-2026-62239 FlashAttention Symlink Attack via tarfile.extractall in hopper/setup.py

FlashAttention through 2.8.3.post1, fixed in commit 0816ef1, contains a symlink attack vulnerability in the downloadandcopy function within hopper/setup.py that extracts NVIDIA toolchain archives without validating symlinks or filtering tar members. A local attacker can pre-plant a symlink in the...

CVE-2026-62239

FlashAttention (up to 2.8.3.post1) contains a symlink attack in hopper/setup.py: download_and_copy() extracts NVIDIA toolchain archives without validating symlinks or filtering tar members. A local attacker can plant a predictable symlink in the cache to redirect extracted binaries to a chosen lo...

PYSEC-2026-2398 BentoML Vulnerable to Arbitrary File Write via Symlink Path Traversal in Tar Extraction

Arbitrary File Write via Symlink Path Traversal in Tar Extraction Summary The safeextracttarfile function validates that each tar member's path is within the destination directory, but for symlink members it only validates the symlink's own path, not the symlink's target. An attacker can create a...

ROS-20260713-73-0026

The vulnerability of the tarfile module in the Python programming language is related to insufficient validation of input data. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow an attacker to compromise the integrity of the protected information...

cpython: python: Extraction filter bypass for linking outside extraction directory

A flaw was found in CPython's tarfile module. This vulnerability allows bypassing of extraction filters, enabling symlink traversal outside the intended extraction directory and potential modification of file metadata via malicious tar archives using TarFile.extractall or TarFile.extract with the...

python: cpython: CPython: tarfile extraction filter bypass allows escaping the destination directory

A flaw was found in the tarfile.extractall function within Python. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted archive. This archive could bypass security filters by using a hardlink that references a symlink, allowing the symlink to be recreated outside th...
