Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in argoproj argo-workflows (the affected version unknown). It has been classified as problematic. This affects an unknown part of the component ZIP File Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-23. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that should be within a restricted directory, but it does not properly neutralize sequences such as ".." that can resolve to a location that is outside of that directory. This is going to have an impact on integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Argo Workflows is an open source container-native workflow engine for orchestrating parallel jobs on Kubernetes. Versions 3.6.13 and below and versions 3.7.0 through 3.7.4, contain unsafe untar code that handles symbolic links in archives. Concretely, the computation of a link's target and the subsequent check are flawed. An attacker can overwrite the file /var/run/argo/argoexec with a script of their choice, which would be executed at the pod's start. The patch deployed against CVE-2025-62156 is ineffective against malicious archives containing symbolic links. This issue is fixed in versions 3.6.14 and 3.7.5.

It is possible to read the advisory at github.com. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2025-66626. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely.
