CVE-2026-12567 PUBLISHED

Symlink-following arbitrary write via github_workflows module

Assigner: BLSOPS
Reserved: 17.06.2026 Published: 17.06.2026 Updated: 18.06.2026

The github_workflows module constructs local directory paths from user-controlled repository names without validating for symlinks. A local attacker sharing the scan directory can plant a symlink at the predictable output path, causing workflow data to be written to an attacker-chosen location.
