{"id":"CVE-2026-35347","aliases":["GHSA-3wfc-mgpm-9rq6"],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-35347","summary":"uutils coreutils comm Silent Data Loss or Denial of Service via Improper Input Validation","details":"The comm utility in uutils coreutils incorrectly consumes data from non-regular file inputs before performing comparison operations. The are_files_identical function opens and reads from both input paths to compare content without first verifying if the paths refer to regular files. If an input path is a FIFO or a pipe, this pre-read operation drains the stream, leading to silent data loss before the actual comparison logic is executed. Additionally, the utility may hang indefinitely if it attempts to pre-read from infinite streams like /dev/zero.","published":"2026-04-22T16:07:54.366Z","modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:15.869948514Z","cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L"},"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"crates.io","name":"uu_comm","fixedVersion":"0.6.0"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/9545","label":"uutils/coreutils#9545"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/uutils"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/35xxx/CVE-2026-35347.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/releases/tag/0.6.0"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-35347"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/9545"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/uutils/coreutils"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-12T03:51:15.869948514Z"}}
