Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Cargo versions prior to 1.96.0
Description
Cargo incorrectly handled symbolic links (symlinks)—which are files that point to another file or directory—inside crate tarballs downloaded from third-party registries. This allows a malicious crate to override the source code of another crate originating from the same registry.
Recommendations
Update to version 1.96.0.
