CVE-2026-35368 uutils coreutils chroot Local Privilege Escalation and chroot Escape in via Name Service Switch (NSS) Injection

A vulnerability exists in the chroot utility of uutils coreutils when using the --userspec option. The utility resolves the user specification via getpwnam after entering the chroot but before dropping root privileges. On glibc-based systems, this can trigger the Name Service Switch NSS to load...

CVE-2026-35368

CVE-2026-35368 describes a local privilege-escalation in the chroot utility of the uutils coreutils when using the --userspec option. The issue arises because the utility resolves the user via getpwnam() after entering the chroot but before dropping root privileges. On glibc-based systems, this c...

CVE-2026-35367

The nohup utility in uutils coreutils creates its default output file, nohup.out, without specifying explicit restricted permissions. This causes the file to inherit umask-based permissions, typically resulting in a world-readable file 0644. In multi-user environments, this allows any user on the...

CVE-2026-35366

The printenv utility in uutils coreutils fails to display environment variables containing invalid UTF-8 byte sequences. While POSIX permits arbitrary bytes in environment strings, the uutils implementation silently skips these entries rather than printing the raw bytes. This vulnerability allows...

CVE-2026-35366 uutils coreutils printenv Security Inspection Bypass via UTF-8 Enforcement

The printenv utility in uutils coreutils fails to display environment variables containing invalid UTF-8 byte sequences. While POSIX permits arbitrary bytes in environment strings, the uutils implementation silently skips these entries rather than printing the raw bytes. This vulnerability allows...

While POSIX permits arbitrary bytes in environment strings, the uutils implementation silently skips these entries rather than printing the raw bytes. This vulnerability allows...

CVE-2026-35365

The mv utility in uutils coreutils improperly handles directory trees containing symbolic links during moves across filesystem boundaries. Instead of preserving symlinks, the implementation expands them, copying the linked targets as real files or directories at the destination. This can lead to...

CVE-2026-35364

The CVE-2026-35364 entry describes a TOCTOU race in the mv utility of the uutils coreutils project during cross-device operations. The vulnerability arises when mv removes the destination path and recreates it via a copy; a local attacker with write access to the destination directory can replace...

CVE-2026-35363

A vulnerability in the rm utility of uutils coreutils allows the bypass of safeguard mechanisms intended to protect the current directory. While the utility correctly refuses to delete . or .., it fails to recognize equivalent paths with trailing slashes, such as ./ or .///. An accidental or...

CVE-2026-35362 uutils coreutils Missing TOCTOU Protection on Non-Linux Unix Platforms in Safe Traversal Module

The safetraversal module in uutils coreutils, which provides protection against Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use TOCTOU symlink races using file-descriptor-relative syscalls, is incorrectly limited to Linux targets. On other Unix-like systems such as macOS and FreeBSD, the utility fails to utilize...

CVE-2026-35362

The CVE-2026-35362 entry concerns the safe_traversal module in uutils coreutils, which is described as failing to provide TOCTOU protections on non-Linux Unix-like systems (e.g., macOS, FreeBSD). The vulnerability, as stated, affects directory traversal operations due to the lack of these protect...

CVE-2026-35361

The mknod utility in uutils coreutils fails to handle security labels atomically by creating device nodes before setting the SELinux context. If labeling fails, the utility attempts cleanup using std::fs::removedir, which cannot remove device nodes or FIFOs. This leaves mislabeled nodes behind wi...

CVE-2026-35360

The touch utility in uutils coreutils is vulnerable to a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use TOCTOU race condition during file creation. When the utility identifies a missing path, it later attempts creation using File::create, which internally uses OTRUNC. An attacker can exploit this window to create ...

CVE-2026-35360

The CVE-2026-35360 entry concerns the touch utility in uutils coreutils. A TOCTOU race occurs during file creation: when touch detects a missing path, it later calls File::create(), which uses O_TRUNC, allowing a local attacker to create a file or swap a symlink at the target path. This can cause...

CVE-2026-35359 uutils coreutils cp Information Disclosure via Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use Symlink Swap

A Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use TOCTOU vulnerability in the cp utility of uutils coreutils allows an attacker to bypass no-dereference intent. The utility checks if a source path is a symbolic link using path-based metadata but subsequently opens it without the ONOFOLLOW flag. An attacker with...
