{"id":"GHSA-vchc-9ggh-3236","summary":"Duplicate Advisory: uutils coreutils has a Path Traversal issue","details":"### Duplicate Advisory\nThis advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-89p7-7cq3-hhr2. This link is maintained to preserve external references.\n\n### Original Description\nA vulnerability in the rm utility of uutils coreutils allows the bypass of safeguard mechanisms intended to protect the current directory. While the utility correctly refuses to delete . or .., it fails to recognize equivalent paths with trailing slashes, such as ./ or .///. An accidental or malicious execution of rm -rf ./ results in the silent recursive deletion of all contents within the current directory. The command further obscures the data loss by reporting a misleading 'Invalid input' error, which may cause users to miss the critical window for data recovery.","modified":"2026-09-10T03:51:03.321357786Z","published":"2026-04-22T18:31:45Z","withdrawn":"2026-07-06T20:20:49Z","database_specific":{"severity":"MODERATE","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-04-30T17:30:54Z","nvd_published_at":"2026-04-22T17:16:39Z","cwe_ids":["CWE-22"]},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-35363"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/issues/9749"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/uutils/coreutils"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"coreutils","ecosystem":"crates.io","purl":"pkg:cargo/coreutils"},"ranges":[{"type":"SEMVER","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"0.8.0"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/04/GHSA-vchc-9ggh-3236/GHSA-vchc-9ggh-3236.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L"}]}
