CVE-2026-105840

lrzsz before 0.13.0 Path Traversal via lrz Restricted Mode checkpath() PUBLISHED

Description (CNA)

lrzsz before 0.13.0 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the lrz receive utility's restricted mode that allows malicious ZMODEM senders to write files outside the current directory using absolute pathnames. Because checkpath() in src/lrz.c only rejects '../' sequences unless built with --enable-pubdir, attackers can send files named with absolute paths to overwrite any file writable by the receiving user.
