Answer in brief
CVE-2026-56876 records a High severity (CVSS 8.1) path traversal vulnerability in CVE-2026-56876. The source record does not mark it as known exploited. No package mapping is present, so exposure must be confirmed against the affected product and deployment inventory.
Review the upstream advisory, identify the affected product in your inventory, and apply the vendor update when one is available.
Path Traversal describes the vulnerability class recorded for this advisory. The current record does not mark CVE-2026-56876 as known exploited; continue to monitor the source for status changes. This is a product-level record in the current feed, not a package-level dependency mapping.
Affected software not mapped. Review the upstream record for vendor-specific product and version guidance.
extract-zip does not validate symlink targets when extracting zip archives. When processing a malicious zip file containing a symlink with a relative path like '../../../../etc/passwd', extract-zip will extract the symlink without validation, allowing it to point outside the extraction directory. Depending on how extract-zip is used, an attacker could read or write to arbitrary files.
