Summary
Datasets through 5.00, fixed in commit ad2d853, contains a symlink-following vulnerability in Extractor.extract() that allows local attackers to write arbitrary files by pre-planting symlinks at predictable output paths.
Attackers can redirect archive extraction to arbitrary filesystem locations in shared-cache environments, enabling overwrite of sensitive files and potential privilege escalation or code execution. A flaw was found in Hugging Face Datasets through 5.00 in Extractor.extract().
When archive contents are extracted to predictable output paths, the extractor follows pre-planted symlinks instead of confining writes to the intended directory. Datasets is vulnerable to symlink following during archive extraction in Extractor.extract().
A local attacker with low privileges who can pre-plant symlinks at predictable output paths, and who can induce extraction (user interaction), may overwrite arbitrary filesystem locations. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.6 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H).
Weakness: CWE-59. Affected Red Hat products: Exploit Intelligence; Lightspeed Core; Red Hat AI Inference Server; Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI (RHEL AI) 3; Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI).
Red Hat does not currently list a fixing RHSA for this CVE.
