| CVE-2025-14693 | 1 Ugreen | 1 Dh2100+ | 2026-01-28 | 6.2 Medium |
| A vulnerability has been found in Ugreen DH2100+ up to 5.3.0. This affects an unknown function of the component USB Handler. Such manipulation leads to symlink following. The attack can be executed directly on the physical device. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. It is suggested to upgrade the affected component. | ||||
| CVE-2026-23893 | 1 Opencryptoki Project | 1 Opencryptoki | 2026-01-26 | 6.8 Medium |
| openCryptoki is a PKCS#11 library and provides tooling for Linux and AIX. Versions 2.3.2 and above are vulnerable to symlink-following when running in privileged contexts. A token-group user can redirect file operations to arbitrary filesystem targets by planting symlinks in group-writable token directories, resulting in privilege escalation or data exposure. Token and lock directories are 0770 (group-writable for token users), so any token-group member can plant files and symlinks inside them. When run as root, the base code handling token directory file access, as well as several openCryptoki tools used for administrative purposes, may reset ownership or permissions on existing files inside the token directories. An attacker with token-group membership can exploit the system when an administrator runs a PKCS#11 application or administrative tool that performs chown on files inside the token directory during normal maintenance. This issue is fixed in commit 5e6e4b4, but has not been included in a released version at the time of publication. | ||||
| CVE-2026-24046 | 1 Backstage | 1 Backstage | 2026-01-26 | 7.1 High |
| Backstage is an open framework for building developer portals. Multiple Scaffolder actions and archive extraction utilities were vulnerable to symlink-based path traversal attacks. An attacker with access to create and execute Scaffolder templates could exploit symlinks to read arbitrary files via the `debug:log` action by creating a symlink pointing to sensitive files (e.g., `/etc/passwd`, configuration files, secrets); delete arbitrary files via the `fs:delete` action by creating symlinks pointing outside the workspace, and write files outside the workspace via archive extraction (tar/zip) containing malicious symlinks. This affects any Backstage deployment where users can create or execute Scaffolder templates. This vulnerability is fixed in `@backstage/backend-defaults` versions 0.12.2, 0.13.2, 0.14.1, and 0.15.0; `@backstage/plugin-scaffolder-backend` versions 2.2.2, 3.0.2, and 3.1.1; and `@backstage/plugin-scaffolder-node` versions 0.11.2 and 0.12.3. Users should upgrade to these versions or later. Some workarounds are available. Follow the recommendation in the Backstage Threat Model to limit access to creating and updating templates, restrict who can create and execute Scaffolder templates using the permissions framework, audit existing templates for symlink usage, and/or run Backstage in a containerized environment with limited filesystem access. | ||||
| CVE-2026-24047 | 1 Backstage | 1 Backstage | 2026-01-26 | 6.3 Medium |
| Backstage is an open framework for building developer portals, and @backstage/cli-common provides config loading functionality used by the backend and command line interface of Backstage. Prior to version 0.1.17, the `resolveSafeChildPath` utility function in `@backstage/backend-plugin-api`, which is used to prevent path traversal attacks, failed to properly validate symlink chains and dangling symlinks. An attacker could bypass the path validation via symlink chains (creating `link1 → link2 → /outside` where intermediate symlinks eventually resolve outside the allowed directory) and dangling symlinks (creating symlinks pointing to non-existent paths outside the base directory, which would later be created during file operations). This function is used by Scaffolder actions and other backend components to ensure file operations stay within designated directories. This vulnerability is fixed in `@backstage/backend-plugin-api` version 0.1.17. Users should upgrade to this version or later. Some workarounds are available. Run Backstage in a containerized environment with limited filesystem access and/or restrict template creation to trusted users. | ||||
| CVE-2024-9341 | 2 Containers, Redhat | 5 Common, Enterprise Linux, Openshift and 2 more | 2026-01-23 | 5.4 Medium |
| A flaw was found in Go. When FIPS mode is enabled on a system, container runtimes may incorrectly handle certain file paths due to improper validation in the containers/common Go library. This flaw allows an attacker to exploit symbolic links and trick the system into mounting sensitive host directories inside a container. This issue also allows attackers to access critical host files, bypassing the intended isolation between containers and the host system. | ||||
| CVE-2024-37143 | 1 Dell | 5 Data Lakehouse, Insightiq, Powerflex Appliance Intelligent Catalog and 2 more | 2026-01-22 | 10 Critical |
| Dell PowerFlex appliance versions prior to IC 46.381.00 and IC 46.376.00, Dell PowerFlex rack versions prior to RCM 3.8.1.0 (for RCM 3.8.x train) and prior to RCM 3.7.6.0 (for RCM 3.7.x train), Dell PowerFlex custom node using PowerFlex Manager versions prior to 4.6.1.0, Dell InsightIQ versions prior to 5.1.1, and Dell Data Lakehouse versions prior to 1.2.0.0 contain an Improper Link Resolution Before File Access vulnerability. An unauthenticated attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system. | ||||
| CVE-2025-13154 | 1 Lenovo | 1 Vantage | 2026-01-16 | 5.5 Medium |
| An improper link following vulnerability was reported in the SmartPerformanceAddin for Lenovo Vantage that could allow an authenticated local user to perform an arbitrary file deletion with elevated privileges. | ||||
| CVE-2024-6233 | 2 Check Point, Checkpoint | 2 Zonealarm Extreme Security, Zonealarm Extreme Security Nextgen | 2026-01-15 | N/A |
| Check Point ZoneAlarm Extreme Security Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Check Point ZoneAlarm Extreme Security. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Forensic Recorder service. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to overwrite arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-21677. | ||||
| CVE-2026-22701 | 1 Tox-dev | 1 Filelock | 2026-01-13 | 5.3 Medium |
| filelock is a platform-independent file lock for Python. Prior to version 3.20.3, a TOCTOU race condition vulnerability exists in the SoftFileLock implementation of the filelock package. An attacker with local filesystem access and permission to create symlinks can exploit a race condition between the permission validation and file creation to cause lock operations to fail or behave unexpectedly. The vulnerability occurs in the _acquire() method between raise_on_not_writable_file() (permission check) and os.open() (file creation). During this race window, an attacker can create a symlink at the lock file path, potentially causing the lock to operate on an unintended target file or leading to denial of service. This issue has been patched in version 3.20.3. | ||||
| CVE-2024-46744 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-01-05 | 7.8 High |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Squashfs: sanity check symbolic link size Syzkiller reports a "KMSAN: uninit-value in pick_link" bug. This is caused by an uninitialised page, which is ultimately caused by a corrupted symbolic link size read from disk. The reason why the corrupted symlink size causes an uninitialised page is due to the following sequence of events: 1. squashfs_read_inode() is called to read the symbolic link from disk. This assigns the corrupted value 3875536935 to inode->i_size. 2. Later squashfs_symlink_read_folio() is called, which assigns this corrupted value to the length variable, which being a signed int, overflows producing a negative number. 3. The following loop that fills in the page contents checks that the copied bytes is less than length, which being negative means the loop is skipped, producing an uninitialised page. This patch adds a sanity check which checks that the symbolic link size is not larger than expected. -- V2: fix spelling mistake. | ||||
| CVE-2025-53594 | 2 Apple, Qnap | 4 Macos, Qfinder Pro, Qsync and 1 more | 2026-01-05 | N/A |
| A path traversal vulnerability has been reported to affect several product versions. If a local attacker gains a user account, they can then exploit the vulnerability to read the contents of unexpected files or system data. We have already fixed the vulnerability in the following versions: Qfinder Pro Mac 7.13.0 and later Qsync for Mac 5.1.5 and later QVPN Device Client for Mac 2.2.8 and later | ||||
| CVE-2023-53973 | 1 Zillya | 1 Total Security | 2026-01-03 | 8.4 High |
| Zillya Total Security 3.0.2367.0 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability that allows low-privileged users to copy files to unauthorized system locations using the quarantine module. Attackers can leverage symbolic link techniques to restore quarantined files to restricted directories, potentially enabling system-level access through techniques like DLL hijacking. | ||||
| CVE-2025-68279 | 1 Weblate | 1 Weblate | 2026-01-02 | 7.7 High |
| Weblate is a web based localization tool. In versions prior to 5.15.1, it was possible to read arbitrary files from the server file system using crafted symbolic links in the repository. Version 5.15.1 fixes the issue. | ||||
| CVE-2025-12838 | 1 Msp360 | 1 Backup | 2025-12-29 | N/A |
| MSP360 Free Backup Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of MSP360 Free Backup. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. User interaction on the part of an administrator is needed additionally. The specific flaw exists within the restore functionality. By creating a junction, an attacker can abuse the service to create arbitrary files. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-27245. | ||||
| CVE-2025-68937 | 1 Forgejo | 1 Forgejo | 2025-12-29 | 9.9 Critical |
| Forgejo before 13.0.2 allows attackers to write to unintended files, and possibly obtain server shell access, because of mishandling of out-of-repository symlink destinations for template repositories. This is also fixed for 11 LTS in 11.0.7 and later. | ||||
| CVE-2025-66626 | 1 Argoproj | 2 Argo-workflows, Argo Workflows | 2025-12-19 | 8.1 High |
| Argo Workflows is an open source container-native workflow engine for orchestrating parallel jobs on Kubernetes. Versions 3.6.13 and below and versions 3.7.0 through 3.7.4, contain unsafe untar code that handles symbolic links in archives. Concretely, the computation of a link's target and the subsequent check are flawed. An attacker can overwrite the file /var/run/argo/argoexec with a script of their choice, which would be executed at the pod's start. The patch deployed against CVE-2025-62156 is ineffective against malicious archives containing symbolic links. This issue is fixed in versions 3.6.14 and 3.7.5. | ||||
| CVE-2025-65843 | 3 Acustica-audio, Acusticaudio, Apple | 3 Aquarius, Aquarius Desktop, Macos | 2025-12-18 | 7.7 High |
| Aquarius Desktop 3.0.069 for macOS contains an insecure file handling vulnerability in its support data archive generation feature. The application follows symbolic links placed inside the ~/Library/Logs/Aquarius directory and treats them as regular files. When building the support ZIP, Aquarius recursively enumerates logs using a JUCE directory iterator configured to follow symlinks, and later writes file data without validating whether the target is a symbolic link. A local attacker can exploit this behavior by planting symlinks to arbitrary filesystem locations, resulting in unauthorized disclosure or modification of arbitrary files. When chained with the associated HelperTool privilege escalation issue, root-owned files may also be exposed. | ||||
| CVE-2023-4053 | 2 Mozilla, Redhat | 6 Firefox, Enterprise Linux, Rhel Aus and 3 more | 2025-12-18 | 6.5 Medium |
| A website could have obscured the full screen notification by using a URL with a scheme handled by an external program, such as a mailto URL. This could have led to user confusion and possible spoofing attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 116, Firefox ESR < 115.2, and Thunderbird < 115.2. | ||||
| CVE-2025-68146 | 1 Tox-dev | 1 Filelock | 2025-12-18 | 6.3 Medium |
| filelock is a platform-independent file lock for Python. In versions prior to 3.20.1, a Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition allows local attackers to corrupt or truncate arbitrary user files through symlink attacks. The vulnerability exists in both Unix and Windows lock file creation where filelock checks if a file exists before opening it with O_TRUNC. An attacker can create a symlink pointing to a victim file in the time gap between the check and open, causing os.open() to follow the symlink and truncate the target file. All users of filelock on Unix, Linux, macOS, and Windows systems are impacted. The vulnerability cascades to dependent libraries. The attack requires local filesystem access and ability to create symlinks (standard user permissions on Unix; Developer Mode on Windows 10+). Exploitation succeeds within 1-3 attempts when lock file paths are predictable. The issue is fixed in version 3.20.1. If immediate upgrade is not possible, use SoftFileLock instead of UnixFileLock/WindowsFileLock (note: different locking semantics, may not be suitable for all use cases); ensure lock file directories have restrictive permissions (chmod 0700) to prevent untrusted users from creating symlinks; and/or monitor lock file directories for suspicious symlinks before running trusted applications. These workarounds provide only partial mitigation. The race condition remains exploitable. Upgrading to version 3.20.1 is strongly recommended. | ||||
