CVE-2026-63134 | BDVDB-2026-357739 Detail

cisagovMalcolm

Description#

Malcolm is a network traffic analysis tool suite. Prior to version 26.07.0, `safe-extract.py` protects file extraction with libarchive's secure flags, but creates directory entries with a raw `os.makedirs(os.path.join(dest, entry.pathname))` that has no traversal protection. An uploaded malicious archive containing a directory entry with a `../` sequence or an absolute path causes the filebeat processing container to create directories outside the intended extraction directory. Version 26.07.0 fixes the issue.

Impact#

Per CVSS v3.1: confidentiality impact none, integrity impact low, availability impact low. Attack vector: network.
