### Summary An unsafe extraction is being performed using `tarfile.extractall()` from a remotely retrieved tarball. Which may lead to the writing of the extracted files to an unintended location. Sometimes, the vulnerability is called a TarSlip or a ZipSlip variant. ### Details I commented the following snippet of code as a vulnerability details. The code is from [file.py#L26..L134](https://github.com/mindsdb/mindsdb/blob/afedd37c16e579b6dc075b0814e42d0505ccdc07/mindsdb/api/http/namespaces/file.py#L26..L134) ```python @ns_conf.route('/<name>') @ns_conf.param('name', "MindsDB's name for file") class File(Resource): @ns_conf.doc('put_file') def put(self, name: str): ''' add new file params in FormData: - file - original_file_name [optional] ''' data = {} ... omitted for brevity url = data['source'] data['file'] = data['name'] ... omitted for brevity ...

### Summary An unsafe extraction is being performed using `shutil.unpack_archive()` from a remotely retrieved tarball. Which may lead to the writing of the extracted files to an unintended location. This vulnerability is sometimes called a **TarSlip** or a **ZipSlip variant**. ### Details Unpacking files using the high-level function `shutil.unpack_archive()` from a potentially malicious tarball without validating that the destination file path remained within the intended destination directory may cause files to be overwritten outside the destination directory. As can be seen in the vulnerable snippet code source, an archive is being retrieved using the `download_file()` function from a remote location which is a user-provided permanent storage bucket `s3`. Immediately after being retrieved, the tarball is unsafely unpacked using the function `shutil.unpack_archive()`. The vulnerable code is [L128..L129](https://github.com/mindsdb/mindsdb/blob/69c76e727b8067f32b06ab83bb835a8c416c...

MindsDB is an open source machine learning platform. An unsafe extraction is being performed using `shutil.unpack_archive()` from a remotely retrieved tarball. Which may lead to the writing of the extracted files to an unintended location. This vulnerability is sometimes called a **TarSlip** or a **ZipSlip variant**. Unpacking files using the high-level function `shutil.unpack_archive()` from a potentially malicious tarball without validating that the destination file path remained within the intended destination directory may cause files to be overwritten outside the destination directory. An attacker could craft a malicious tarball with a filename path, such as `../../../../../../../../etc/passwd`, and then serve the archive remotely using a personal bucket `s3`, thus, retrieve the tarball through **mindsdb** and overwrite the system files of the hosting server. This issue has been addressed in version 22.11.4.3. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should avoid inge...

An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the TGAInput::read_tga2_header functionality of OpenImageIO Project OpenImageIO v2.4.7.1. A specially crafted targa file can lead to a disclosure of sensitive information. An attacker can provide a malicious file to trigger this vulnerability.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to create a denial-of-service condition on affected installations of Unified Automation OPC UA C++ Demo Server 1.7.6-537. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the OpcUa_SecureListener_ProcessSessionCallRequest method. A crafted OPC UA message can force the server to incorrectly update a reference count. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to create a denial-of-service condition on the system.
