CVE-2026-7774
Publication date 4 June 2026
Last updated 18 June 2026
Ubuntu priority
Description
tarfile.data_filter could be bypassed using crafted link entries, including symlinks with empty or directory-like names, to redirect later archive members outside the intended extraction directory. This allowed a malicious tar archive to cause tarfile.extractall() to write files outside the destination directory, subject to the permissions of the extracting process.
