Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Versions 1.16.0 up to 1.21.2, 1.22.0 up to 1.22.2, and 1.23.0 up to 1.23.1 of github.com/kubeedge/kubeedge are affected by a path traversal flaw in the keadm archive extraction function. An attacker who can supply a malicious tar.gz archive that keadm processes, such as through a compromised download source, could write or overwrite files outside the destination directory with the privileges of the user running keadm. Upgrade to 1.21.2, 1.22.2, or 1.23.1. Until then, only use trusted package sources and verify archive integrity before running keadm.
