CVE-2026-63293

The CVE-2026-63293 entry concerns LXD: during image import/unpack, metadata.yaml is not validated as a symlink, enabling a crafted image archive to point to host filesystem paths. This can allow arbitrary file read and write on the host, escalating to full access via symlink traversal. The descri...

CVE-2026-63293 Arbitrary File Read/Write: metadata.yaml symlink in image allows host filesystem access as root

JLSEC-2026-1264 GNU gzip contains a vulnerability in the gzexe utility related to insecure temporary file...

GNU gzip contains a vulnerability in the gzexe utility related to insecure temporary file handling. When the mktemp utility is not available in the user’s PATH, gzexe falls back to constructing a temporary file path based solely on the process ID PID. This predictable filename is created without...

CVE-2026-73030

A flaw was found in unearth. This path traversal vulnerability exists in the iswithindirectory function, which fails to normalize paths before validation. This allows ../ sequences to bypass directory containment checks. An attacker can exploit this by supplying malicious tar archives with symlin...

CVE-2026-72694

A flaw was found in MRTG. When the MRTG daemon is started as a root user and subsequently drops privileges, a local, low-privileged attacker can exploit a symbolic link symlink following vulnerability. By influencing or pre-placing a symlink in the process ID PID file path, the attacker can trick...

CVE-2026-72693

openvt -u is intended to identify the owner of the current VT and then execute login as that user from a privileged context. In the documented kbrequest/init usage, the ownership test in authenticateuser relies on stat"/proc//fd/0". stat on /proc//fd/0 follows the symlink to the underlying TTY...

CVE-2026-72694

CVE-2026-72694 describes a local privilege escalation in MRTG. When MRTG runs as root and then drops privileges, a low-privileged attacker can exploit a symlink-following vulnerability in the PID file path to trick the root process into changing ownership of an arbitrary existing file to the daem...

CopyEscape: Taking Over Docker Hosts with docker cp

Imperva Red Team uncovered CVE-2026-17106 , a container-to-host arbitrary file-write vulnerability in Docker’s docker cp command. Docker later confirmed that the same CVE also affected sbx cp when copying files out of Docker Sandboxes. A malicious container or sandbox could exploit the copy proce...
