CVE-2026-35586: Python Archive Symlink Escape
Code iterates over archive members prior to extraction but does not appear to validate symlink targets. While checking for path traversal is common, failing to check for symbolic links allows an attacker to extract a payload outside the destination directory (symlink escape). Ensure you validate 'issym()' and 'islnk()' for tarfiles, or 'external_attr' for zi
