CVE-2024-1485: Registry-support: decompress can delete files outside scope via relative paths

First published: Tue Feb 13 2024(Updated: )

A flaw was found in the decompression function of registry-support. This issue can be triggered if an unauthenticated remote attacker tricks a user into parsing a devfile which uses the `parent` or `plugin` keywords. This could download a malicious archive and cause the cleanup process to overwrite or delete files outside of the archive, which should not be allowed.
