Vulnerability details

OneDev is a Git server with CI/CD, kanban, and packages. In versions 15.0.6 and below, TarUtils.untar() creates symbolic links verbatim from TAR entry getLinkName() without validating whether the target is an absolute path. A subsequent file entry in the same…

archive traverses the symlink, writing to arbitrary server-side locations. This is exploitable by any authenticated user with CI Job write access — no admin interaction required. This is an incomplete fix bypass of CVE-2021-21251 (GHSA-2w6j-wc8c-9mq2): that patch blocked .. path segments but did not address absolute symlink targets. This issue has been fixed in version 15.0.7.

Why these techniques?

Arbitrary file write via malicious tar extraction in OneDev directly enables exploitation of the public-facing server (T1190) and facilitates ingress/planting of attacker-controlled files or tools at arbitrary paths (T1105).
