tar-rs versions 0.4.11 through 0.4.46 contain a symlink escape vulnerability in the Builder::append_dir_all() function that allows attackers to read files outside the intended source root directory by planting symlinks in an attacker-controlled directory. When a privileged process archives an untrusted directory, the function follows symlinks without verifying that resolved targets remain within the source root, causing out-of-bounds files to be included in the archive as regular files and disclosed to the attacker.

CVE-2025-30240——
———The affected TP-Link Aginet devices do not properly validate symbolic links created on external USB storage
devices. By placing a crafted symbolic link on supported storage media, an
attacker may cause the system to resolve the link.
Successful
exploitation may allow unauthorized read access to sensitive files within the
device filesystem.2hCVE-2026-636227.8 ALT—
———A flaw was found in libvirt. A local attacker, specifically a process running as the confined `swtpm` user, could exploit a symlink-following vulnerability in the `virFileChownFiles()` function. By planting a symbolic link within the `swtpm` state directory, the attacker could trick the root-level libvirt daemon into changing the ownership of an arbitrary file to the `swtpm` user. This allows for privilege escalation from the `swtpm` sandbox to root-level file ownership control.4hCVE-2026-719646.5 MED—
———CyberPanel 2.4.3, fixed in commit eca0c3c, contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the file manager component that allows authenticated attackers to read sensitive system files by uploading a crafted ZIP archive containing symbolic links. Attackers can exploit the application's failure to validate symlinks before extraction, causing symbolic links targeting arbitrary filesystem paths outside the user's home directory to persist on disk and be accessed through the web interface.5hCVE-2026-150595.5 MED—
———Local unprivileged users can terminate arbitrary local processes via a systemd-oomd IPC API due to a missing path traversal validation.7hCVE-2026-194296.5 MED—
———Jenkins FilePath.untarFrom() in all versions, including those with the CVE-2026-33001 patch applied, validates symlink destinations but not targets. The CVE-2026-33001 fix enforces that the symlink file is created within the workspace boundary, but the symlink target — the path returned by te.getLinkName() and passed directly to symlinkTo() — is never validated and may point to any path on the controller filesystem. An attacker with Item/Configure permission can configure a job to extract a malicious .tar or .tar.gz archive via a tool installer or custom build step. When FilePath.untarFrom() processes the archive, it creates symlinks inside the workspace that resolve to arbitrary controller paths. By targeting the entire $JENKINS_HOME/secrets/ directory — including master.key, hudson.util.Secret, hudson.model.Secrets.xml, and any other files present — an attacker can exfiltrate all Jenkins cryptographic material through the workspace viewer (GET /job/{name}/ws/) or build artifacts. Combined with credentials.xml and per-user config.xml files, this enables offline AES-128 decryption of all {AQA...}-format credential entries, exposing in plaintext every password, API key, cloud provider secret, and SSH private key stored in the Jenkins credential store — compromising all downstream systems those credentials protect.6hCVE-2026-17435—6.9%
——2File::Rotate::Simple versions before 0.4.0 for Perl create the target of dangling symlinks when rotating files.
When the file to be rotated is a symbolic link to a missing file, and the touch option is enabled, then the rotate method assumes that the file is absent (since the existence check is against the target), and does not rotate it. But it touches the file, which creates the target.
An attacker that has the ability to create the symlink can use this to create an arbitrary file with permissions of the process rotating the files (which may be different from the process that normally writes to the log file that is being rotated).
Note that the touch option is disabled by default.3d
