tarfile.data_filter path traversal bypass allows writing outside the extraction directory
CVE-2026-7774 is fixed in 98 products on 3 platforms, first by idle-python3.14 3.14.4-1ubuntu0.1, released June 8, 2026. 10 other affected products have no fix yet. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
tarfile.data_filter could be bypassed using crafted link entries, including symlinks with empty or directory-like names, to redirect later archive members outside the intended extraction directory. This allowed a malicious tar archive to cause tarfile.extractall() to write files outside the destination directory, subject to the permissions of the extracting process.
