{"id":"AZL-80315","summary":"CVE-2026-33056 affecting package tardev-snapshotter 3.2.0.tardev1-9","details":"tar-rs is a tar archive reading/writing library for Rust. In versions 0.4.44 and below, when unpacking a tar archive, the tar crate's unpack_dir function uses fs::metadata() to check whether a path that already exists is a directory. Because fs::metadata() follows symbolic links, a crafted tarball containing a symlink entry followed by a directory entry with the same name causes the crate to treat the symlink target as a valid existing directory — and subsequently apply chmod to it. This allows an attacker to modify the permissions of arbitrary directories outside the extraction root. This issue has been fixed in version 0.4.45.","modified":"2026-08-30T05:24:52Z","published":"2026-03-20T08:16:11Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-33056"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-33056"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"tardev-snapshotter","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/tardev-snapshotter"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"3.2.0.tardev1-9"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-80315.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
