CVE-2026-7832 2026-05-05 6.0 MEDIUM 7.0 HIGH
A security flaw has been discovered in IObit Advanced SystemCare 19. This affects an unknown part of the file ASC.exe of the component Service. The manipulation results in symlink following. Attacking locally is a requirement. This attack is characterized by high complexity. It is indicated that the exploitability is difficult. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks.
CVE-2026-27105 1 Dell 1 Dell\/alienware Purchased Apps 2026-05-05 N/A 6.3 MEDIUM
Dell/Alienware Purchased Apps, versions prior to 1.1.31.0, contain an Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Arbitrary File Write
CVE-2026-41882 1 Jetbrains 1 Intellij Idea 2026-05-05 N/A 7.4 HIGH
In JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA before 2024.3.7.1, 2025.1.7.1, 2025.2.6.2, 2025.3.4.1, 2026.1.1 reading arbitrary local files was possible via built-in web server
CVE-2026-35345 1 Uutils 1 Coreutils 2026-05-04 N/A 5.3 MEDIUM
A vulnerability in the tail utility of uutils coreutils allows for the exfiltration of sensitive file contents when using the --follow=name option. Unlike GNU tail, the uutils implementation continues to monitor a path after it has been replaced by a symbolic link, subsequently outputting the contents of the link's target. In environments where a privileged user (e.g., root) monitors a log directory, a local attacker with write access to that directory can replace a log file with a symlink to a sensitive system file (such as /etc/shadow), causing tail to disclose the contents of the sensitive file.
CVE-2026-35365 1 Uutils 1 Coreutils 2026-05-04 N/A 6.6 MEDIUM
The mv utility in uutils coreutils improperly handles directory trees containing symbolic links during moves across filesystem boundaries. Instead of preserving symlinks, the implementation expands them, copying the linked targets as real files or directories at the destination. This can lead to resource exhaustion (disk space or time) if symlinks point to large external directories, unexpected duplication of sensitive data into unintended locations, or infinite recursion and repeated copying in the presence of symlink loops.
CVE-2026-41397 1 Openclaw 1 Openclaw 2026-04-30 N/A 6.8 MEDIUM
OpenClaw before 2026.3.31 contains a sandbox escape vulnerability allowing attackers to traverse directory boundaries through symlink exploitation during file synchronization operations. Remote attackers can bypass sandbox restrictions by crafting malicious symlinks in mirror sync operations to access arbitrary files outside intended boundaries.
