| CVE-2026-40717 | 2026-08-03 | 6.6 Medium | ||
| Dell Monitor driver, version 1.0.0.0, contains an Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of Privileges. | ||||
| CVE-2026-18508 | 1 Redhat | 3 Enterprise Linux, Hummingbird, Openshift | 2026-08-03 | 4.4 Medium |
| A flaw was found in GNU tar. When extracting an archive with the --one-top-level option, hardlink targets are not confined to the designated top-level directory and may resolve relative to the extraction working directory. A crafted archive can create hardlinks that escape the intended boundary and, when combined with a preexisting symbolic link under the working directory, may allow writing outside that boundary during a single extraction. | ||||

| CVE-2026-54706 | 1 Onionshare | 1 Onionshare | 2026-07-31 | 4.8 Medium |
| OnionShare is an open source tool that lets you securely and anonymously share files, host websites, and chat with friends using the Tor network. Prior to 2.6.4, OnionShare CLI/Desktop follows symbolic links in cli/onionshare_cli/web/send_base_mode.py through SendBaseModeWeb.set_file_info() and stream_individual_file(), allowing remote recipients of Share or Website mode to read local files outside the selected directory. This issue is fixed in version 2.6.4. | ||||
| CVE-2026-46464 | 1 Dell | 1 Powerprotect Data Domain | 2026-07-31 | 4.9 Medium |
| Dell PowerProtect Data Domain, versions 7.7.1.0 through 8.7, LTS2026 release version 8.6.1.0 through 8.6.1.10, LTS2025 release version 8.3.1.0 through 8.3.1.30, LTS2024 release versions 7.13.1.0 through 7.13.1.70 contain an improper link resolution before file access ('Link following') vulnerability. A high privileged attacker with remote access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to information disclosure. | ||||
| CVE-2026-61371 | 1 Microsoft | 1 Avml | 2026-07-31 | 7.5 High |
| Microsoft AVML before 0.17.0 could follow a symlink when opening a destination output path on Unix, allowing truncation/overwrite of the symlink target. The destructive effect is performed at open-time via O_TRUNC, and can happen before full input validation completes (“truncation-before-validation”). | ||||
| CVE-2026-64616 | 1 Egor | 1 Data::ndarray::shared | 2026-07-30 | 3.3 Low |
| Data::NDArray::Shared versions before 0.02 for Perl create a world-readable mmap backing file and open it without O_EXCL or O_NOFOLLOW. The segment is created in ndarray.h with open(path, O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0666). The mode is 0666, so under the default umask 022 the file is created mode 0644 (world-readable). O_NOFOLLOW is absent, so a symlink planted at the path is followed, and O_EXCL is absent, so the open silently uses a pre-planted file instead of failing. A "Shared" segment naturally lives in a shared directory such as /tmp or /dev/shm, where any local user can read the IPC payloads stored in the world-readable segment, and a pre-planted file or symlink at the path lets a local attacker win a pre-creation race or redirect the open. | ||||
| CVE-2026-13723 | 1 Develar | 1 App-builder | 2026-07-30 | 6.5 Medium |
| A vulnerability in the `zipx.Unzip` extraction routine of Develar's app-builder allows an attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on macOS APFS by exploiting a Unicode Normalization Collision combined with symlink following behavior. APFS treats certain Unicode equivalent filenames as identical (e.g., ß ↔ ss), while app builder performs no canonical normalization before validating or writing paths. As a result, a crafted ZIP archive containing: • a symlink entry named ss pointing to a target file, and • a regular file named ß containing attacker controlled data, will cause the second write to follow the symlink and overwrite the target file. | ||||
| CVE-2026-67433 | 1 Linuxfabrik | 1 Monitoring-plugins | 2026-07-30 | N/A |
| Linuxfabrik monitoring-plugins provides Python monitoring plugins for Icinga, Nagios, and related monitoring systems. In version 6.0.0, the logfile check legacy database migration moved a predictable path from /tmp with os.rename() and allowed a local user controlling the plugin account to place a symlink that would be followed by sqlite3.connect() during a root-run check. | ||||
| CVE-2026-13268 | 1 Gdata-software | 1 Total Security | 2026-07-30 | N/A |
| G DATA Total Security Backup Service Link Following Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of G DATA Total 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 Backup Service. By creating a symbolic link, an attacker can abuse the service to delete a file. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of SYSTEM. Was ZDI-CAN-28665. | ||||
| CVE-2025-4211 | 1 Qt | 1 Qt | 2026-07-29 | 7.3 High |
| Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') vulnerability in QFileSystemEngine in the Qt corelib module on Windows which potentially allows Symlink Attacks and the use of Malicious Files. Issue originates from CVE-2024-38081. The vulnerability arises from the use of the GetTempPath API, which can be exploited by attackers to manipulate temporary file paths, potentially leading to unauthorized access and privilege escalation. The affected public API in the Qt Framework is QDir::tempPath() and anything that uses it, such as QStandardPaths with TempLocation, QTemporaryDir, and QTemporaryFile. This issue affects all version of Qt up to and including 5.15.18, from 6.0.0 through 6.5.8, from 6.6.0 through 6.8.1. It is fixed in Qt 5.15.19, Qt 6.5.9, Qt 6.8.2, 6.9.0 | ||||
| CVE-2026-8170 | 1 Extreme Networks | 1 Switch Engine (exos) | 2026-07-28 | N/A |
| The mv, cp, and rm file utilities exposed within the ExtremeXOS (EXOS) shell environment fail to safely canonicalize paths and follow symbolic links outside of the intended privilege boundary. An attacker with low-privilege CLI access can create a symbolic link that references a privileged filesystem location and then invoke the affected utilities to read, modify, or replace security-critical files outside of their authorized scope. Under certain conditions, this may enable escalation to root-level access and persistent modification of the device software stack. Exploitation is possible remotely by an attacker holding a low-privilege account, or locally via the serial console. Extreme would like to thank Hadrien Barral (Université Gustave Eiffel) and Georges-Axel Jaloyan (French Ministry of the Interior) for responsible disclosure of their findings. | ||||
| CVE-2026-54572 | 1 Rclone | 1 Rclone | 2026-07-28 | 7.5 High |
| Rclone is a command-line program to sync files and directories to and from different cloud storage providers. Prior to 1.74.4, with -l/--links, rclone serializes symlinks as .rclonelink text objects and recreates them on a local destination without validating the target, allowing an attacker-controlled remote to plant an escaping symlink and cause a following object write to land outside the destination with attacker-chosen contents. This issue is fixed in version 1.74.4. | ||||
| CVE-2026-16552 | 2 Redhat, Systemd | 4 Enterprise Linux, Hardened Images, Openshift Container Platform and 1 more | 2026-07-27 | 6.3 Medium |
| The reported issue is invalid, as it requires root privileges to reproduce, and it is out of scope of the threat model of the affected component. | ||||
| CVE-2026-17459 | 1 Perwendel | 1 Spark | 2026-07-27 | 4.3 Medium |
| A vulnerability was determined in perwendel spark up to 2.9.4. This vulnerability affects the function staticFiles.externalLocation of the file src/main/java/spark/resource/ExternalResourceHandler.jav of the component SparkJava. Executing a manipulation can lead to symlink following. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet. | ||||
| CVE-2026-12503 | 1 Loytec | 8 L-dali, L-gate, L-inx and 5 more | 2026-07-27 | N/A |
| Improper Link Resolution (CWE-59) in `/usr/bin/larm_starter` in Loytec L-INX, L-GATE, L-ROC, L-IOB, L-DALI, L-VIS and L-PAD through 8.4.16 on LINX-A64 allows an authenticated `larmapp` attacker to make `/etc/passwd` writable by the `larmapp` group (leading to root privilege escalation) via a symlink attack on `/etc/lighttpd/ssl/server.pem`. | ||||
| CVE-2026-50163 | 1 Oras-project | 1 Oras-go | 2026-07-27 | 7.1 High |
| oras-go is a Go library for managing OCI artifacts. Prior to 2.6.2, ensureLinkPath in content/file/utils.go:262-275 validates a hardlink target relative to the extract base but returns the unresolved target, causing os.Link("victim.secret", "<extract_base>/payload.tar.gz/evil_cwd_link") to resolve header.Linkname against the process current working directory for a Typeflag=TypeLink entry such as Name=payload.tar.gz/evil_cwd_link and Linkname="victim.secret" with io.deis.oras.content.unpack: "true", which can expose or tamper with files such as .env, .git/config, .aws/credentials, and ~/.ssh/config. This issue is fixed in version 2.6.2. | ||||
