Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process. extract-zip through 2.0.1 containment-checks only the parent directory of each archive entry and never the entry's own final path component, so an archive containing two entries with identical names - a symlink whose target is outside the destination, followed by a regular file - writes through the planted symlink and yields an arbitrary file write outside the destination directory.
*** Bug 2537817 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This JavaScript library is only mentioned in unused lock files. The component sources are not present, and nothing that we build or ship will try to use it. Furthermore, even the lock files no longer mention extract-zip in the current 1.98.1 release.
@gnaik, would you know if there is documentation you could share about how the packages are scanned for dependencies? We get quite a few javascript related CVEs opened against Rust, if we can do anything to make those scans more accurate, it would be appreciated.
