Описание
Allows the extraction filter to be ignored, allowing symlink targets to point outside the destination directory, and the modification of some file metadata.
You are affected by this vulnerability if using the tarfile module to extract untrusted tar archives using TarFile.extractall() or TarFile.extract() using the filter= parameter with a value of "data" or "tar". See the tarfile extraction filters documentation https://docs.python.org/3/library/tarfile.html#tarfile-extraction-filter for more information.
Note that for Python 3.14 or later the default value of filter= changed from "no filtering" to `"data", so if you are relying on this new default behavior then your usage is also affected.
Note that none of these vulnerabilities significantly affect the installation of source distributions which are tar archives as source distributions already allow arbitrary code execution during the build process. However when evaluating source distributions it's important to avoid installing source distributions with suspicious links.
A flaw was found in the Python tarfile module. This vulnerability allows attackers to bypass extraction filters, enabling symlink targets to escape the destination directory and allowing unauthorized modification of file metadata via the use of TarFile.extract() or TarFile.extractall() with the filter= parameter set to "data" or "tar".
Отчет
Versions of python36:3.6/python36 as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 are marked as 'Not affected' as they just provide "symlinks" to the main python3 component, which provides the actual interpreter of the Python programming language.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Red Hat recommends upgrading to a fixed release of Python as soon as one is available. This vulnerability can be mitigated by rejecting links inside tarfiles that use relative references to the parent directory. The upstream advisory provides this example code: '''
Avoid insecure segments in link names.
for member in tar.getmembers(): if not member.islnk(): continue if os.pardir in os.path.split(member.linkname): raise OSError("Tarfile with insecure segment ('..') in linkname")
Now safe to extract members with the data filter.
tar.extractall(filter="data") '''
