{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-85518","details":"A flaw was found in OpenSCAP. When decomposing a Source DataStream (SDS) file, the application does not properly validate relative file path attributes, leading to a path traversal vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this flaw by tricking a user or automated system into decomposing a crafted datastream containing directory traversal sequences. Successful exploitation allows unauthorized file creation or modification outside the intended target directory with the permissions of the executing process.","modified":"2026-10-24T21:00:08.118240739Z","published":"2026-10-21T20:17:27.323Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-85518"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-85518"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"openscap","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/openscap?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.3.10+dfsg-1","1.3.10+dfsg-2","1.3.10+dfsg-3","1.3.7+dfsg-1","1.3.7+dfsg-1+deb12u1","1.3.8+dfsg-1","1.3.8+dfsg-2","1.3.8+dfsg-3","1.3.9+dfsg-1","1.3.9+dfsg-1.1","1.3.9+dfsg-1.1~exp1","1.3.9+dfsg-2","1.4.0+dfsg-1","1.4.0+dfsg-2","1.4.1+dfsg-1","1.4.2+dfsg-1","1.4.2+dfsg-2","1.4.3+dfsg-1","1.4.4+dfsg-1","1.4.4+dfsg-2","1.4.5+dfsg-1","1.4.6+dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-85518.json"}},{"package":{"name":"openscap","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/openscap?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.4.2+dfsg-1","1.4.2+dfsg-2","1.4.3+dfsg-1","1.4.4+dfsg-1","1.4.4+dfsg-2","1.4.5+dfsg-1","1.4.6+dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-85518.json"}},{"package":{"name":"openscap","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/openscap?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.4.2+dfsg-1","1.4.2+dfsg-2","1.4.3+dfsg-1","1.4.4+dfsg-1","1.4.4+dfsg-2","1.4.5+dfsg-1","1.4.6+dfsg-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-85518.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L"}]}
