The command creates parent directories and subsequently performs a second path resolution to create the target file, neither of which is anchored to a directory file descriptor. An attacker with concurrent write access can replace a path component with a symbolic link between these operations, redirecting the privileged write to an arbitrary file system location.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-04-22T16:08:17.812+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-04-22T18:00:14.133+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"https://github.com/uutils","name":"coreutils","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"Uutils\",\n                    \"product\": \"coreutils\",\n                    \"platforms\": [\n                        \"Linux\",\n                        \"Unix\",\n                        \"macOS\"\n                    ],\n                    \"collectionURL\": \"https://github.com/uutils\",\n                    \"packageName\": \"coreutils\",\n                    \"repo\": \"https://github.com/uutils/coreutils\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"status\": \"affected\",\n                            \"lessThan\": \"0.7.0\",\n                            \"version\": \"0\",\n                            \"versionType\": \"semver\"\n                        }\n                    ],\n                    \"defaultStatus\": \"unaffected\"\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","score":6.3,"severity":"MEDIUM"}],"references":["https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/10140","https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/releases/tag/0.7.0"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-35356","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-35356","identifiers":["CVE-2026-35356"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
