CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:P/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Summary
Datasets through 5.00, fixed in commit ad2d853, contains a symlink-following vulnerability in Extractor.extract() that allows local attackers to write arbitrary files by pre-planting symlinks at predictable output paths. Attackers can redirect archive extraction to arbitrary filesystem locations in shared-cache environments, enabling overwrite of sensitive files and potential privilege escalation or code execution.
