CVE-2026-25187 1 Microsoft 30 Windows 10 1607, Windows 10 1809, Windows 10 21h2 and 27 more 2026-03-14 7.8 High
Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Winlogon allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
CVE-2026-31894 2 Labredescefetrj, Wegia 2 Wegia, Wegia 2026-03-13 7.5 High
WeGIA is a web manager for charitable institutions. In 3.6.5, The patched loadBackupDB() extracts tar.gz archives to a temporary directory using PHP's PharData class, then uses glob() and file_get_contents() to read SQL files from the extracted contents. Neither the extraction nor the file reading validates whether archive members are symbolic links. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.6.6.
CVE-2026-21517 1 Microsoft 2 Windows App, Windows App For Mac 2026-03-13 4.7 Medium
Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Windows App for Mac allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
CVE-2026-27748 2 Avira, Gen Digital 3 Avira Internet Security Suite, Internet Security, Avira Internet Security 2026-03-13 7.8 High
Avira Internet Security contains an improper link resolution vulnerability in the Software Updater component. During the update process, a privileged service running as SYSTEM deletes a file under C:\\ProgramData without validating whether the path resolves through a symbolic link or reparse point. A local attacker can create a malicious link to redirect the delete operation to an arbitrary file, resulting in deletion of attacker-chosen files with SYSTEM privileges. This may lead to local privilege escalation, denial of service, or system integrity compromise depending on the targeted file and operating system configuration.
CVE-2026-31979 1 Himmelblau-idm 1 Himmelblau 2026-03-13 8.8 High
Himmelblau is an interoperability suite for Microsoft Azure Entra ID and Intune. Prior to 3.1.0 and 2.3.8, the himmelblaud-tasks daemon, running as root, writes Kerberos cache files under /tmp/krb5cc_<uid> without symlink protections. Since commit 87a51ee, PrivateTmp is explicitly removed from the tasks daemon's systemd hardening, exposing it to the host /tmp. A local user can exploit this via symlink attacks to chown or overwrite arbitrary files, achieving local privilege escalation. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.1.0 and 2.3.8.
CVE-2026-2808 1 Hashicorp 2 Consul, Consul Enterprise 2026-03-13 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-2026-28689 1 Imagemagick 1 Imagemagick 2026-03-12 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-2026-29786 1 Isaacs 1 Tar 2026-03-12 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-2025-15318 1 Tanium 3 End-user Notifications, End-user Notifications Endpoint Tools, Endpoint End-user-notifications 2026-03-09 5.1 Medium

CVE-2025-15543 1 Tp-link 2 Vx800v, Vx800v Firmware 2026-03-09 4.6 Medium
Improper link resolution in USB HTTP access path in VX800v v1.0 allows a crafted USB device to expose root filesystem contents, giving an attacker with physical access read‑only access to system files.
CVE-2025-15541 1 Tp-link 2 Vx800v, Vx800v Firmware 2026-03-09 6.3 Medium
Improper link resolution in the VX800v v1.0 SFTP service allows authenticated adjacent attackers to use crafted symbolic links to access system files, resulting in high confidentiality impact and limited integrity risk.
CVE-2026-23893 1 Opencryptoki Project 1 Opencryptoki 2026-03-06 6.8 Medium
openCryptoki is a PKCS#11 library and provides tooling for Linux and AIX. Versions 2.3.2 and above are vulnerable to symlink-following when running in privileged contexts. A token-group user can redirect file operations to arbitrary filesystem targets by planting symlinks in group-writable token directories, resulting in privilege escalation or data exposure. Token and lock directories are 0770 (group-writable for token users), so any token-group member can plant files and symlinks inside them. When run as root, the base code handling token directory file access, as well as several openCryptoki tools used for administrative purposes, may reset ownership or permissions on existing files inside the token directories. An attacker with token-group membership can exploit the system when an administrator runs a PKCS#11 application or administrative tool that performs chown on files inside the token directory during normal maintenance. This issue is fixed in commit 5e6e4b4, but has not been included in a released version at the time of publication.
CVE-2025-48582 1 Google 1 Android 2026-03-06 8.4 High
In multiple locations, there is a possible way to delete media without the MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission due to an intent redirect. This could lead to local escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation.
CVE-2025-66680 1 Wisecleaner 1 Wise Force Deleter 2026-03-06 7.1 High
An issue in the WiseDelfile64.sys component of WiseCleaner Wise Force Deleter 7.3.2 and earlier allows attackers to delete arbitrary files via a crafted request.
CVE-2026-25906 1 Dell 1 Optimizer 2026-03-06 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 2026-03-06 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-2025-68146 1 Tox-dev 1 Filelock 2026-03-05 6.3 Medium
filelock is a platform-independent file lock for Python. In versions prior to 3.20.1, a Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition allows local attackers to corrupt or truncate arbitrary user files through symlink attacks. The vulnerability exists in both Unix and Windows lock file creation where filelock checks if a file exists before opening it with O_TRUNC. An attacker can create a symlink pointing to a victim file in the time gap between the check and open, causing os.open() to follow the symlink and truncate the target file. All users of filelock on Unix, Linux, macOS, and Windows systems are impacted. The vulnerability cascades to dependent libraries. The attack requires local filesystem access and ability to create symlinks (standard user permissions on Unix; Developer Mode on Windows 10+). Exploitation succeeds within 1-3 attempts when lock file paths are predictable. The issue is fixed in version 3.20.1. If immediate upgrade is not possible, use SoftFileLock instead of UnixFileLock/WindowsFileLock (note: different locking semantics, may not be suitable for all use cases); ensure lock file directories have restrictive permissions (chmod 0700) to prevent untrusted users from creating symlinks; and/or monitor lock file directories for suspicious symlinks before running trusted applications. These workarounds provide only partial mitigation. The race condition remains exploitable. Upgrading to version 3.20.1 is strongly recommended.
CVE-2026-27967 2 Zed, Zed-industries 2 Zed, Zed 2026-03-05 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-2026-22701 1 Tox-dev 1 Filelock 2026-03-05 5.3 Medium
filelock is a platform-independent file lock for Python. Prior to version 3.20.3, a TOCTOU race condition vulnerability exists in the SoftFileLock implementation of the filelock package. An attacker with local filesystem access and permission to create symlinks can exploit a race condition between the permission validation and file creation to cause lock operations to fail or behave unexpectedly. The vulnerability occurs in the _acquire() method between raise_on_not_writable_file() (permission check) and os.open() (file creation). During this race window, an attacker can create a symlink at the lock file path, potentially causing the lock to operate on an unintended target file or leading to denial of service. This issue has been patched in version 3.20.3.
