CVE-2026-2808 1 Hashicorp 2 Consul, Consul Enterprise 2026-04-17 6.8 Medium
HashiCorp Consul and Consul Enterprise 1.18.20 up to 1.21.10 and 1.22.4 are vulnerable to arbitrary file read when configured with Kubernetes authentication. This vulnerability, CVE-2026-2808, is fixed in Consul 1.18.21, 1.21.11 and 1.22.5.
CVE-2026-20161 1 Cisco 1 Thousandeyes Enterprise Agent 2026-04-17 5.5 Medium
A vulnerability in the CLI of Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise Agent could allow an authenticated, local attacker with low privileges to overwrite arbitrary files on the local system of an affected device. This vulnerability is due to improper access controls on files that are on the local file system of an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by placing a symbolic link in a specific location on the local file system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass file system permissions and overwrite arbitrary files on the affected device.
CVE-2026-4135 1 Lenovo 1 Software Fix 2026-04-17 6.6 Medium
During an internal security assessment, a potential vulnerability was discovered in Lenovo Software Fix, that during installation could allow a local authenticated user to perform an arbitrary file write with elevated privileges.
CVE-2026-27967 2 Zed, Zed-industries 2 Zed, Zed 2026-04-17 7.1 High
Zed, a code editor, has a symlink escape vulnerability in versions prior to 0.225.9 in Agent file tools (`read_file`, `edit_file`). It allows reading and writing files **outside the project directory** when a project contains symbolic links pointing to external paths. This bypasses the intended workspace boundary and privacy protections (`file_scan_exclusions`, `private_files`), potentially leaking sensitive user data to the LLM. Version 0.225.9 fixes the issue.
CVE-2026-32282 2 Go Standard Library, Golang 2 Internal/syscall/unix, Go 2026-04-17 6.4 Medium
On Linux, if the target of Root.Chmod is replaced with a symlink while the chmod operation is in progress, Chmod can operate on the target of the symlink, even when the target lies outside the root. The Linux fchmodat syscall silently ignores the AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag, which Root.Chmod uses to avoid symlink traversal. Root.Chmod checks its target before acting and returns an error if the target is a symlink lying outside the root, so the impact is limited to cases where the target is replaced with a symlink between the check and operation.
CVE-2026-25906 1 Dell 1 Optimizer 2026-04-16 7.3 High
Dell Optimizer, versions prior to 6.3.1, contain 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-2026-27905 1 Bentoml 1 Bentoml 2026-04-16 7.8 High
BentoML is a Python library for building online serving systems optimized for AI apps and model inference. Prior to 1.4.36, the safe_extract_tarfile() function validates that each tar member's path is within the destination directory, but for symlink members it only validates the symlink's own path, not the symlink's target. An attacker can create a malicious bento/model tar file containing a symlink pointing outside the extraction directory, followed by a regular file that writes through the symlink, achieving arbitrary file write on the host filesystem. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.4.36.
CVE-2026-29786 1 Isaacs 1 Tar 2026-04-16 6.3 Medium
node-tar is a full-featured Tar for Node.js. Prior to version 7.5.10, tar can be tricked into creating a hardlink that points outside the extraction directory by using a drive-relative link target such as C:../target.txt, which enables file overwrite outside cwd during normal tar.x() extraction. This issue has been patched in version 7.5.10.
CVE-2026-28689 1 Imagemagick 1 Imagemagick 2026-04-16 6.3 Medium
ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41, domain="path" authorization is checked before final file open/use. A symlink swap between check-time and use-time bypasses policy-denied read/write. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.1.2-16 and 6.9.13-41.
CVE-2026-20941 1 Microsoft 5 Windows 11 24h2, Windows 11 24h2, Windows 11 25h2 and 2 more 2026-04-16 7.8 High
Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Host Process for Windows Tasks allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
CVE-2026-26225 1 Intego 1 Personal Backup 2026-04-16 N/A
Intego Personal Backup, a macOS backup utility that allows users to create scheduled backups and bootable system clones, contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability. Backup task definitions are stored in a location writable by non-privileged users while being processed with elevated privileges. By crafting a malicious serialized task file, a local attacker can trigger arbitrary file writes to sensitive system locations, leading to privilege escalation to root.
CVE-2002-2323 1 Sun 1 Solaris Pc Netlink 2026-04-16 7.5 High
Sun PC NetLink 1.0 through 1.2 does not properly set the access control list (ACL) for files and directories that use symbolic links and have been restored from backup, which could allow local or remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.
CVE-2005-1111 4 Canonical, Debian, Gnu and 1 more 4 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Cpio and 1 more 2026-04-16 4.7 Medium
Race condition in cpio 2.6 and earlier allows local users to modify permissions of arbitrary files via a hard link attack on a file while it is being decompressed, whose permissions are changed by cpio after the decompression is complete.
CVE-2002-0725 1 Microsoft 2 Windows 2000, Windows Nt 2026-04-16 5.5 Medium
NTFS file system in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 SP2 allows local attackers to hide file usage activities via a hard link to the target file, which causes the link to be recorded in the audit trail instead of the target file.
CVE-1999-0783 1 Freebsd 1 Freebsd 2026-04-16 5.5 Medium
FreeBSD allows local users to conduct a denial of service by creating a hard link from a device special file to a file on an NFS file system.
CVE-1999-1386 1 Perl 1 Perl 2026-04-16 5.5 Medium
Perl 5.004_04 and earlier follows symbolic links when running with the -e option, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/perl-eaXXXXX file.
CVE-2000-0715 3 Conectiva, Kirk Bauer, Redhat 3 Linux, Diskcheck, Powertools 2026-04-16 N/A
DiskCheck script diskcheck.pl in Red Hat Linux 6.2 allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file.
CVE-2005-2527 1 Sun 1 Java 2026-04-16 N/A
Race condition in Java 1.4.2 before 1.4.2 Release 2 on Apple Mac OS X allows local users to corrupt files or create arbitrary files via unspecified attack vectors related to a temporary directory, possibly due to a symlink attack.
CVE-2001-0131 2 Apache, Debian 2 Http Server, Debian Linux 2026-04-16 2.9 Low
htpasswd and htdigest in Apache 2.0a9, 1.3.14, and others allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
CVE-2002-2374 1 Sun 1 Patchpro 2026-04-16 N/A
Unspecified vulnerability in pprosetup in Sun PatchPro 2.0 has unknown impact and attack vectors related to "unsafe use of temporary files."
