# Insecure Preservation of SUID/SGID Bits during ZIP Extraction Leading to Potential Privilege Escalation

Advisory record · `GHSA-vv5m-jxxh-4627`

- **Identifiers:** `GHSA-vv5m-jxxh-4627` · `RUSTSEC-2026-0367`
- **State:** Confirmed
- **Severity:** CVSS 7.3 High
- **Critical:** No
- **Published:** 9 Oct 2026
- **Updated:** 16 Oct 2026
- **Reviewed by a person:** No

Published by the GitHub Advisory Database at 9 Oct 2026, 12:00 UTC. agentprime has not analysed this yet, so whether it affects any app is not known.

## Affected packages

- `zip` (crates.io): affected `>=0.0.0-0, <9.0.0`; fixed in `9.0.0`

## Machine-written summary

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

> The zip crate, versions before 9.0.0, keeps setuid, setgid and sticky bits from a ZIP archive's external attributes when extracting files. An attacker who supplies a crafted archive that a privileged process, such as root in an installer or CI pipeline, extracts can get setuid-root or setgid files created, which may lead to local privilege escalation. Upgrade to zip 9.0.0 or later.

## Check whether this affects you

A Match means an installed version is in the affected range above. Most don’t affect the app; agentprime hasn’t analysed this one yet.

- With the agentprime MCP server (<https://api.agentprime.io/mcp>), ask your agent to check the project: `check_lockfile` sends a lockfile, `check_packages` a list of installed packages, and both return the Matches and the upgrades that clear them. `get_advisory` returns this record. Setup: <https://agentprime.io/mcp.md>
- In a browser: <https://agentprime.io/check/> reads your lockfile in the browser, never uploading it.
- Whether it touches your code, with file and line: the Claude Code plugin, <https://agentprime.io/plugin.md>
- As JSON: <https://api.agentprime.io/v1/advisories/GHSA-vv5m-jxxh-4627>, or `POST https://api.agentprime.io/v1/match` with your packages (<https://agentprime.io/api.md>)
