|---|---|---|---|
| Go | github.com/deislabs/oras | < 0.9.0 | 0.9.0 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Impact
The directory support (#55) allows the downloaded gzipped tarballs to be automatically extracted to the user-specified directory where the tarball can have symbolic links and hard links.
A well-crafted tarball or tarballs allow malicious artifact providers linking, writing, or overwriting specific files on the host filesystem outside of the user-specified directory unexpectedly with the same permissions as the user who runs `oras pull`.
Precisely, the following users of the affected versions are impacted
- `oras` CLI users who runs `oras pull`.
- Go programs, which invokes `github.com/deislabs/oras/pkg/content.FileStore`.
### Patches
The problem has been patched by the PR linked with this advisory. Users should upgrade their `oras` CLI and packages to `0.9.0`.
### Workarounds
For `oras` CLI users, there is no workarounds other than pulling from a trusted artifact provider.
For `oras` package users, the workaround is to not use `github.com/deislabs/oras/pkg/content.FileStore`, and use other content stores instead, or pull from a trusted artifact provider.
