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...

External Control of File Name or Path

Overview Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to External Control of File Name or Path through the record-output process. An attacker can create or overwrite files on the host system by exploiting a crafted symlink in a container image, which can lead to arbitrary command execution...

GHSA-73HR-M85F-64V9 Incus has an arbitrary file write on host via `exec-output` symlink in crafted image

Summary The record-output parameter of the /instances/$name/exec endpoint stores the output of the command in the exec-output directory of the instance. If exec-output is a symlink, file named execUUID.stdout and execUUID.stderr can be written to an arbitrary location where the .stdout file will...

AZL-91448 CVE-2026-57231 affecting package podman 5.6.1-9

Podman is a tool for managing OCI containers and pods. From 1.8.1 until 5.8.4, a container image that contains a environment variable with just a key and no value can trick podman into passing that variable from the host into the container. This is made worse by the fact that using an asterisk wi...
