CVE-2026-59875

A flaw was found in node-tar, a library for manipulating tar archives in Node.js. A remote attacker could craft a malicious archive containing null characters NUL bytes in its metadata. When this archive is processed, the unstripped null characters can cause the application to terminate...

CVE-2026-59874

node-tar is a tar archive manipulation library for Node.js. Prior to 7.5.18, tar.replace accepts a checksum-valid tar header with a negative base-256 encoded entry size, causing the archive scanner to make no progress while repeatedly parsing the same header. This issue is fixed in version 7.5.18...

CVE-2026-59875 node-tar: Uncaught Exception DoS via NUL byte in PAX path/linkpath records

node-tar is a tar archive manipulation library for Node.js. Prior to 7.5.17, node-tar does not strip NUL bytes from PAX path and linkpath records in src/pax.ts, allowing a crafted archive with values to reach fs.lstat or fs.open and terminate the process with an uncaught exception. This issue is...

dotnet: .NET: Local file tampering via link following vulnerability

A flaw was found in .NET's System.Formats.Tar library. When extracting a specially crafted TAR archive containing symbolic links, the TarFile.ExtractToDirectory method may incorrectly follow those links and write files outside the intended extraction directory. An attacker could exploit this issu...

UBUNTU-CVE-2026-53655

node-tar is a full-featured Tar for Node.js. Prior to 7.5.16, 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 extend...

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...

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...
