GHSA-VMF3-W455-68VH node-tar applies PAX size override to intermediary GNU long-name/long-link headers, causing tar parser interpretation differential (file smuggling)

Summary tar node-tar applies a PAX extended header's size= record and other PAX overrides to the next header entry of any type, including intermediary metadata headers such as a GNU long-name L or long-link K entry. Per POSIX pax, a PAX extended header x describes the next file entry, not the...

Interpretation Conflict

Overview org.webjars.npm:tar is a full-featured Tar for Node.js. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Interpretation Conflict due to improper handling of PAX extended header size overrides in intermediary metadata headers. An attacker can cause inconsistent archive parsing results...

Node.js Module node-tar < 7.5.10 Arbitrary File Overwrite

The version of node-tar installed on the remote host is prior to 7.5.10. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability: - node-tar is a full-featured Tar for Node.js. Prior to version 7.5.10, tar can be tricked into creating a hardlink that points outside the extraction directory by using a...

RockyLinux 9 : linux-sgx (RLSA-2026:18868)

The remote RockyLinux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RLSA-2026:18868 advisory. qs: qs: Denial of Service via improper input validation in array parsing CVE-2025-15284 node-tar: tar: node-tar: Arbitrary file overwrite and symlink...

The vulnerability of the node-tar library in the Node.js software platform arises from incorrect path name restrictions for restricted-access directories. This allows attackers to gain unauthorized access to protected information.

The vulnerability of the node-tar library in the Node.js software platform is related to an incorrect limitation on the path name for the restricted-access directory. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow a malicious actor to gain unauthorized access to protected information...

File Inclusion tar Dependency in Confluence Data Center

This High severity File Inclusion vulnerability was introduced in versions 8.9.0, 9.0.1, 9.1.0, 9.2.5, 9.5.1, 10.1.2, and 10.2.0 of Confluence Data Center. This File Inclusion vulnerability, with a CVSS Score of 8.2 and a CVSS Vector of...

node-tar: tar: node-tar: Arbitrary file overwrite via Unicode path collision race condition

A flaw was found in node-tar, a library for Node.js. This race condition vulnerability occurs due to incomplete handling of Unicode path collisions within the path-reservations system on case-insensitive filesystems, such as macOS APFS. A remote attacker can exploit this by providing a specially...

node-tar: tar: node-tar: Arbitrary file creation via path traversal bypass in hardlink security check

A flaw was found in node-tar, a Node.js module for handling TAR archives. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass path traversal protections by crafting a malicious TAR archive. The security check for hardlink entries uses different path resolution logic than the actual hardlink...

node-tar: tar: node-tar: Arbitrary file overwrite and symlink poisoning via unsanitized linkpaths in archives

A flaw was found in the node-tar library. This vulnerability allows an attacker to craft malicious archives that, when extracted, can bypass intended security restrictions. This leads to arbitrary file overwrite and symlink poisoning, potentially allowing unauthorized modification of files on the...
