Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-67030)
CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to write arbitrary files.
The vulnerability exists due to path traversal in the extractFile function when extracting archive entries with traversal sequences or absolute paths. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted archive to write arbitrary files.
If a written file is later used as an executable or configuration file, this may lead to code execution in the context of the current working user.
