Amazon Linux 2023 Security Advisory: ALAS2023-2026-3170
Advisory Released Date: 2026-10-12
Advisory Updated Date: 2026-10-12
Severity:
Important
Issue Overview:
gitoxide gix-fs before 0.23.0 contains a path validation bypass vulnerability in the worktree checkout mechanism that allows attackers to escape the worktree directory via symlink manipulation. During forced checkout with overwrite_existing enabled, attackers can craft malicious repository trees where symlink entries replace validated directories, causing subsequent files to be written outside the worktree through the symlink for code execution or file manipulation. (CVE-2026-100419)
Affected Packages:
rust
Issue Correction:
Run dnf update rust --releasever 2023.12.20261012 or dnf update --advisory ALAS2023-2026-3170 --releasever 2023.12.20261012 to update your system.
