A Reality Check on SBOM-Based Vulnerability Management: An Empirical Study and a Path Forward

The Software Bill of Materials SBOM is a critical tool for securing the software supply chain SSC, but its practical utility is undermined by inaccuracies in both its generation and its application in vulnerability scanning. This paper presents a large-scale empirical study on 2,414 open-source...

CVE-2025-52991

The Nix, Lix, and Guix package managers default to using temporary build directories in a world-readable and world-writable location. This allows standard users to deceive the package manager into using directories with pre-existing content, potentially leading to unauthorized actions or data...

CVE-2025-46415

A race condition in the Nix, Lix, and Guix package managers allows the removal of content from arbitrary folders. This affects Nix before 2.24.15, 2.26.4, 2.28.4, and 2.29.1; Lix before 2.91.2, 2.92.2, and 2.93.1; and Guix before 1.4.0-38.0e79d5b...

CVE-2025-52993

A race condition in the Nix, Lix, and Guix package managers enables changing the ownership of arbitrary files to the UID and GID of the build user e.g., nixbld or guixbuild. This affects Nix before 2.24.15, 2.26.4, 2.28.4, and 2.29.1; Lix before 2.91.2, 2.92.2, and 2.93.1; and Guix before...

CVE-2025-52992

The Nix, Lix, and Guix package managers fail to properly set permissions when a derivation build fails. This may allow arbitrary processes to modify the content of a store outside of the build sandbox. This affects Nix before 2.24.15, 2.26.4, 2.28.4, and 2.29.1; Lix before 2.91.2, 2.92.2, and...

CVE-2025-46416

The CVE-2025-46416 issue affects Nix, Lix, and GNU Guix where a build-isolation bypass allows a user to escalate to the build user (e.g., nixbld/guixbuild). Affected versions: Nix up to 2.24.15, 2.26.4, 2.28.4, 2.29.1; Lix up to 2.91.2, 2.92.2, 2.93.1; Guix before 1.4.0-38.0e79d5b. The descriptio...
