DescriptionNVD

A flaw was found in Podman. If an attacker can pass a crafted tar archive to the podman load command, they can create files on the host machine with the privileges of the user running Podman.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary host file creation in Podman's podman load command lets anyone who can supply a crafted tar archive write files on the host with the privileges of the user running Podman. The flaw (CWE-277, insecure inherited permissions) affects Podman installations where image archives are loaded from untrusted sources, and is scored a moderate CVSS 5.5 because the write primitive is limited to the invoking user's permissions rather than root. No public exploit code and no CISA KEV listing were identified at time of analysis, though the Red Hat advisory and Bugzilla tracker confirm the issue is acknowledged upstream.
