CVE-2025-13462

CVE-2025-13462, low severity (CVSS 3.3): 3 tracked apps concerned, all fixed or indeterminable on their current version.

Severity (CVSS): 3.3
Exploitation: 0.2 %
Tracked apps: 3
Still exposed: 0

Published on 2026-03-12

The "tarfile" module would still apply normalization of AREGTYPE (\x00) blocks to DIRTYPE, even while processing a multi-block member such as GNUTYPE_LONGNAME or GNUTYPE_LONGLINK. This could result in a crafted tar archive being misinterpreted by the tarfile module compared to other implementations.
