CVE-2024-25711: diffoscope Path Traversal vulnerability

February 27, 2024

diffoscope before 256 allows directory traversal via an embedded filename in a GPG file. Contents of any file, such as ../.ssh/id_rsa, may be disclosed to an attacker. This occurs because the value of the gpg –use-embedded-filenames option is trusted.
