Description

A flaw was found in adm-zip, a Node.js library used for handling zip archives. This vulnerability allows a local attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system. When extracting an archive, adm-zip follows symbolic links, which are special files that point to other files or directories. An attacker can exploit this by placing a symbolic link within a temporary extraction directory, redirecting the extraction process to write data outside the intended secure location. This could lead to unauthorized modification of system files.
