It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-35376 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- coreutils (crates.io): affected all versions up to 0.8.0; no fix listed\n- coreutils (crates.io): affected all versions up to 0.8.0; no fix listed\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-35376/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-35376/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-35376","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-35376/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-35376","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-35376","GHSA-6g8r-74qp-6859","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-35376"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"uutils coreutils","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit a TOCTOU race in chcon to redirect relabeling operations, bypassing SELinux controls and modifying security labels on sensitive files.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"canonical","cpe":[{"product":"coreutils","vendor":"uutils"}],"cvss":{"score":4.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-367","name":"Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition"}],"description":"A Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) vulnerability exists in the chcon utility of uutils coreutils during recursive operations. The implementation resolves recursive targets using a fresh path lookup (via fts_accpath) rather than binding the traversal and label application to the specific directory state encountered during traversal. Because these operations are not anchored to file descriptors, a local attacker with write access to a directory tree can exploit timing-sensitive rename or symbolic link races to redirect a privileged recursive relabeling operation to unintended files or directories. This vulnerability breaks the hardening expectations for SELinux administration workflows and can lead to the unauthorized modification of security labels on sensitive system objects.","ecosystems":["crates.io"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"uutils coreutils chcon Security Bypass and Mandatory Access Control (MAC) Inconsistency via TOCTOU Race Condition","id":"CVE-2026-35376","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"crates.io","product":null,"products":[],"type":"race_condition","year":"2026"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"uutils coreutils env Local Denial of Service via Improper Handling of Backslashes in Split-String Mode","id":"CVE-2026-35377"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"crates.io","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["0.8.0"],"package":"coreutils","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-6g8r-74qp-6859"},{"ecosystem":"crates.io","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["0.8.0"],"package":"coreutils","purl":"pkg:cargo/coreutils","source":"GHSA-6g8r-74qp-6859"}],"prev":{"headline":"uutils coreutils split Local Data Integrity Issue via Lossy Filename Encoding","id":"CVE-2026-35375"},"products":["coreutils"],"published":"2026-04-22","related":[{"cvss_score":7.3,"headline":"uutils coreutils chmod Path Traversal Bypass of --preserve-root","id":"CVE-2026-35338","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"uutils coreutils chroot Local Privilege Escalation and chroot Escape in via Name Service Switch (NSS) Injection","id":"CVE-2026-35368","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"uutils coreutils mkfifo Unauthorized Permission Change on Existing Files","id":"CVE-2026-35341","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"uutils coreutils mkfifo Privilege Escalation via TOCTOU Race Condition","id":"CVE-2026-35352","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"uutils coreutils Path-Based Safety Bypass with --preserve-root","id":"CVE-2026-35349","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":6.6,"headline":"uutils coreutils cp Unexpected Privileged Executable Creation with -p","id":"CVE-2026-35350","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"},{"cvss_score":6.6,"headline":"uutils coreutils mv Denial of Service and Data Duplication via Improper Symlink Expansion","id":"CVE-2026-35365","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-22","vendors":["Uutils"]},"summary":"A local attacker can exploit a TOCTOU race in chcon to redirect relabeling operations, bypassing SELinux controls and modifying security labels on sensitive files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-35376/"}
