No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\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-2026-92205/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-92205/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-92205","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-92205/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-92205","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-92205","GHSA-gmrm-4288-44px","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-92205"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"zdi","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"BusyBox libarchive Symlink Directory Traversal Arbitrary File Creation Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to create arbitrary files on affected installations of BusyBox. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.\n\nThe specific flaw exists within the libarchive component. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to create files in the context of the current user.
