CVE-2026-35348 is fixed in rust-coreutils on 1 platform by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-35348 (version 0.10.0-1), released April 22, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
The sort utility in uutils coreutils is vulnerable to a process panic when using the --files0-from option with inputs containing non-UTF-8 filenames. The implementation enforces UTF-8 encoding and utilizes expect(), causing an immediate crash when encountering valid but non-UTF-8 paths. This diverges from GNU sort, which treats filenames as raw bytes. A local attacker can exploit this to crash the utility and disrupt automated pipelines.
