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.
