      <title>CVE-2026-42496 — Archive::Tar versions before 3.08 for Perl extract symlinks with attacker controlled targets outside the extraction dir…</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-42496</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; BINGOS Archive::Tar, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Archive::Tar versions before 3.08 for Perl extract symlinks with attacker controlled targets outside the extraction directory.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;_make_special_file() passes the tar header&amp;#39;s linkname to symlink() without validating it against absolute paths or .. segments. The secure-extract mode check that guards regular file extraction does not cover the symlink target.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A subsequent open through the extracted name reads or writes the attacker chosen path.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
