| CVE-2025-0913 | 2 Golang, Microsoft | 2 Go, Windows | 2025-08-08 | 5.5 Medium |
| os.OpenFile(path, os.O_CREATE|O_EXCL) behaved differently on Unix and Windows systems when the target path was a dangling symlink. On Unix systems, OpenFile with O_CREATE and O_EXCL flags never follows symlinks. On Windows, when the target path was a symlink to a nonexistent location, OpenFile would create a file in that location. OpenFile now always returns an error when the O_CREATE and O_EXCL flags are both set and the target path is a symlink. | ||||

| CVE-2021-1491 | 1 Cisco | 1 Catalyst Sd-wan Manager | 2025-08-04 | N/A |
| A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco SD-WAN vManage Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to read arbitrary files on the underlying file system of the device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient file scope limiting.

| CVE-2024-9341 | 2 Containers, Redhat | 5 Common, Enterprise Linux, Openshift and 2 more | 2025-08-02 | 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-2024-1753 | 1 Redhat | 3 Enterprise Linux, Openshift, Rhel Eus | 2025-08-01 | 8.6 High |
| A flaw was found in Buildah (and subsequently Podman Build) which allows containers to mount arbitrary locations on the host filesystem into build containers. A malicious Containerfile can use a dummy image with a symbolic link to the root filesystem as a mount source and cause the mount operation to mount the host root filesystem inside the RUN step. The commands inside the RUN step will then have read-write access to the host filesystem, allowing for full container escape at build time. | ||||
| CVE-2025-0146 | 1 Zoom | 5 Meeting Software Development Kit, Rooms, Rooms Controller and 2 more | 2025-08-01 | 3.9 Low |

| CVE-2023-20004 | 1 Cisco | 2 Roomos, Telepresence Collaboration Endpoint | 2025-07-30 | 4.4 Medium |
| Three vulnerabilities in the CLI of Cisco TelePresence CE and RoomOS could allow an authenticated, local attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the local file system of an affected device. These vulnerabilities are due to improper access controls on files that are on the local file system. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by placing a symbolic link in a specific location on the local file system of an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the affected device. To exploit these vulnerabilities, an attacker would need to have a remote support user account. Note: CVE-2023-20092 does not affect Cisco DX70, DX80, TelePresence MX Series, or TelePresence SX Series devices. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities. | ||||
